our Windows 2000 Servers are broadcasting they are master browsers. It seems
to me that's generating unnecessary network traffic, besides the aggravation
of wading through all the warnings in the event logs. I've been told
there's nothing we can do about it though. As a test I disabled my own
Computer Browser service on my XP Pro laptop and I haven't seen any ill
effects. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance.
