As I understand it, clients will prefer logging on to a BDC over a PDC,
and then use whichever responds quickest, so certainly all the clients
should not be logging in to one box or other - and probably least likely
to log on to the PDC of the two options.

I know that we see about a 60/40 split logins to BDC/PDC.

I don't think you should have domain master = yes set on the BDC.

Here's the settings from my BDC

[global]
netbios name = CORE02
server string = Longhill BDC (%v,%h)
workgroup = LONGHILL
interfaces = 10.108.1.8/255.255.255.0
name resolve order = host bcast wins
os level = 65
domain master = no
domain logons = yes
local master = no
preferred master = no
guest ok = yes
wins server = 10.108.1.32

Hope that helps

Alex

Can you post again exactly the global section from both PDC and BDC.
Several other settings have changed between your two posts which makes
it impossible to know exactly what the situation is!

Thanks
