whereever you read PDC or ADC in a 2003 or 2000 paper/book I would ignore.
These are multi-master models and all domain controllers are DCs, period.
IF you have no more DCs in your domain, you have no more AD and need to
build it again. There are 5 master roles and a GC that need to be
considered as well. I would suggest before screwing with a multi DC domain
to take a course (hands on bootcamp) in lieu of reading books as this is
UNLIKE NT4
