Nothing there, I thought maybe someone has more info (like in a mail they
received from Samba.org). Maybe not, eh?

PDC - Primary Domain Controller
BDC - Backup Domain Controller - this contains a backup of the user database
and other associated guff the PDC keeps, and can authenticate users if the
PDC fails, not that'd ever happen with a Microsoft OS <BG>
