You have to have the same shares on both pdc and bdc and have them sync in realtime (drbd master/master or something cluster) to keep the data for the users up. My experencies in production PDC/LDAP BDC/LDAP are that if you do not have a replicating wins on both. It could be when the pdc (or bdc) failes a couple of users can login the other (who where logged on to the pc) need to rejoin the machnie to the domain). Samba4wins will do that job.
