Guest Ryan Hanisco Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 RE: Master Browser election Hi Ray, Did you really want to stop elections or jsut make sure that the server is always the Master Browser. Especially in a workgroup environment, I would think you'd want to maintain the list? -- Ryan Hanisco MCSE, MCTS: SQL 2005, Project+ http://www.techsterity.com Chicago, IL Remember: Marking helpful answers helps everyone find the info they need quickly.
