I have a Windows 2000 Server (SP4) which is running as a domain controller which logs the below event id in the system log every 1-2 hours.
Event ID 8003 MRxSmb:
The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer “PC Name” that believes that it is the master for the domain on transport NetBT_Tcpip_{C57E9C7D-6B91-4A45-9. The browser is stopping or an election is being forced.
The “PC Name” can be any of our Windows 2000/XP machines on our domain.
I have read a few articles on the internet but none have really helped me understand what the error is, let alone resolve the problem.
One Microsoft article suggested an error with the subnet mask being incorrect. But some of the machines are using DHCP, while others are using static addresses (and they are all using the same subnet mask address.)
Any help would be much appreciated.
