+Make the file chmod 700 readable!
 For replicating the SysVol folder, run the following command (--dry-run means that no modifications are actually made):
-   rsync --dry-run -XAavz --delete-after --password-file=/root/.rsync-sysvol.secret rsync://sysvol-replication@{IP-of-your-PDC-Emulator}/SysVol/ /var/lib/samba/sysvol/
+   rsync --dry-run -XAavz --delete-after --password-file=/root/.rsync-sysvol.secret rsync://sysvol-replication@$yourdomaincontrollerip$/sysvol/ /var/lib/samba/sysvol/
+If everything goes well you can schedule a cron job on your BDC:
+   crontab -e
+and put the following in the file without the quotes:
+  "*/5 * * * *          rsync -XAavz --delete-after --password-file=/root/.rsync-sysvol.secret rsync://sysvol-replication@$yourdomaincontrollerip$/sysvol/ /var/lib/samba/sysvol/"
+Repeat these steps on every BDC (except your PDC Emulator!).
 That's all.
