What should be the flag for PDC machine trust account? If I set to "S" then it will appear as "BDC" in NT server manager, if "W" then as "Workstation or server", if no machine trust then it will not appear on server manager list. --beast

The X means: String of 11 characters surrounded by square brackets [] representing account flags such as U (user), W (workstation), X (no password expiration), I (Domain trust account), H (Home dir required), S (Server trust account), and D (disabled). No special flag is needed for the PDC. If you enable domain logons, and use default security it should automatically be a PDC. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Email: jht@samba.org

The correct flag is 'S' for sever (DC) trust account - the machine should be joined to itself. Server manager is not picking up some other sign that this is the PDC - it's not recorded in the SAM.
