Does anyone know how you specify on windows 2000 server, pro, win9x to either turn on or turn off "master browser"??

Thanx in advance.

In 9x, goto control panel and select Network.

Highlight File and Printer sharing for Microsoft Networks and click Properties. A panel will appear with two Properties. These are LM Announce and Browse Master.

Highlight Browse Master and you will have the option to select Enabled, Disabled and Automatic. The procedure for other Windows systems is similar.

Alternatively, using the registry editor, browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\VNETSUP\Ndi\Params\MaintainServerList.

The values are 0 for Disabled, 1 for Enabled and 2 for Automatic in the first value {default}.
