I backup the PDC and BDCs just like any other linux machine using
bacula. If you want you can add an extra step you can slapcat to a
compressed file on the master ldap server (assuming you are using
openldap-2.3.X) before you run the backup. As for shares my PDC and
BDCs do not share files directly so there is not much to backup for
these. The domain member servers is where all the 30 TB+ of samba data
is on my network at work.
