If you want to setup your BDC same as Windows BDC, you should set: preferred master = Yes domain master = No (This just for the PDC) local master = Yes At least one (local) master browser should exist in each subnet. In Microsoft implementation (one of ) BDC should become master browser unless PDC exists in the same subnet. Remember that Samba cannot become a backup browser, so if you have multiple BDCs and PDC in the same subnet, only one should be set: preferred master = Yes You had better read documentation about browsing. --- TAKAHASHI Motonobu <[email protected]> -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
