Subject: Excessive Elections
I am getting periodic error messages regarding browser elections (see
below). It seems that once I apply the regedit fix I have (below)
another machine crops up with the same error with in a week or so. Is
there a way to correct this error from the server level instead of going
from machine to machine with a regedit fix? I am checking to see if this
TechNet article will help, but our image and dhcp server gives the
correct subnet mask. Article ID: Q143153
