Ummm, I didn't mean to imply this as a default, rather I should have said:

Have every samba server be the PDC for local, and the BDC for the
remote domains.  And yes, this would require seperate instances of
Samba running on the same machine.  It would also perhaps be better if
they were seperate machines, but probably not necessary.
