I have an NT4 PDC (SBS) and I have a new server which will have 2003 on it. Can I have the 2003 server as a bdc to the NT4?

No... 2000 Server and 2003 Server Never act as any type of BDC. They are always a primary domain controller. not even primary really, but that is their comparison...

Windows 2000 can NOT act as a BDC in a NT4 domain. If you need a new machine in your existing domain you will need to load NT4 on it to ran as a BDC.
