*****************************************************
When I use the browstat status anywhere else in the network, I get DC01 for
the master browser..... anywhere else including DC01 and DC02. My DC01 is the
main DC which also has all the 5 fsmo roles, so I did the registry hack on
how to force it to always be the domain master browser.
This output is from the member server which is also an exchange box and has
the RAS/VPN service running. This service used to be in my DC01 but was
causing too many problems because of master browser being multi-homed which
is a bad idea.
The bottom part of the output,
Status for domain XXXXXX on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{3FEAE60B-C123-4038-982C
-664D2A62CE0C}
Browsing is NOT active on domain. Status : 6118
Master name cannot be determined from GetAdapterStatus.
only comes out when there is a user connected to the VPN. So when there is
no one connnected thru the VPN, the output comes out without this bottom part
and reports that the domain master browser is indeed my DC01, which is
right... but this output as you can see reports that the domain master
browser is my member server itself.
Please help... any other questions please just let me know and I will
provide all the details you might need
thanks
