Windows 2003 server in workgroup event id 8009 in workgroup server

February 11, 2008

I am running Windows 2003 server in workgroup and have event id 8009 errors

in event wiewer. I would like to know how to disable this server from trying

to be a master browserv.

I tried this HKLM\Sytem\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser\Parameters. There

are three settings: no (can not be a browser), yes (very detailed, basically

this would be the favored child in a tie if it got that far, for example, if

two WINNT Servers were equal as far as everything to that point goes, the one

with this registry entry would win the tie, and auto (will act as browser if

asked by Master Browser). NT Workstations have it set to NO and NT Servers

have it set to YES by default.

(2)IsDomainMasterBrowser, which is located in the same location. Here there

are two possibilities: yes or no. The default is NO for all computers. If

this key is set to YES there are two things to consider: the first is that

this machine will have an advantage in an election and the second is that

when this machine boots up it will always force an election". But the key

does not have the browser paramter key.
