Not sure if YaST does this for you but you need DNS records for your
windoze boxes to find the PDC. For my domain called 'rci' I serve out:
_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.rci. 20    IN      SRV     0 100 389
ldap-1.redcondor.com.
_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.rci. 20    IN      SRV     0 100 389
ldap-2.redcondor.com.
ldap-1 is my PDC and ldap-2 is my BDC

On the surface, it looks fairly straightforward to configure a samba
PDC with OpenLDAP using Yast. Has anyone done this, and do you still
need to go in and edit the config files afterwards? I experimented with
this yesterday, but was unable to get my PC to join the domain I set up.
Thanks,

Hi Michael,

In what section of the DNS file do those entries go (sanitized 
"xyz".com.db file follows):
