Matt,
You have to have at least 1 Browser in your Microsoft
Network. So I would leave the Browser Election Settings
alone.
If you add the DIALD Filters I provided in a previous E-mail,
then you should have no NETBIOS Messages inducing
your DIALD Link to activate....
To see what is activating your link, you may want to try
enabling DEBUG on your DIALD/PPP Link. This should
give you the Protocol Type/Service and the Address. Once
you have this information, we should be able to identify
the culprit.
You can locate the DEBUG Output in the /var/log/messages
file.
