Does the order mentioned by Andrew correspond to the order given by nmblookup 'mydomain#1c'?
Playing with IP adresses I noticed that on a XP client echo %LOGONSERVER% gives me the netbios name of the DC (PDC or BDC) which has the smallest IP. In any case nmblookup 'mydomain#1c' outputs the PDC before the BDC. Is this behavior expected?
