Hi,

I'm having trouble to figure out how to prevent client PC's to be
browser master using Group Policy.

There are ways to do this from the registry or directry configuring the
network adapter settings. But I would like to create a GPO for my OU and
write down the registry setting to be "publish" by the GPO (Sorry for my
bad english. I'm native finnish speaker. I hope you can still follow my
thoughts...)

I've done a registry setting one time from the Group Policy but it was
before I upgraded my Windows 2000 Server Administrative Templates to be
compatible with Windows XP SP2. Now the settings are gone but the GPO is
still running.

A link to any website where this kind of situation is explained or
direct instructions are very welcome.

Thanks in advance,
Petri Kuorikoski
