I have searched the internet, and have tried some things I have found,
but cannot resolve my issue. Hoping to find some help here.
I have a peer to peer network static IP on all workstations,
approximately 100 computers running Windows XP pro, and Windows 2000
pro. My desktop, Ubuntu, and one Linux Server, running Red Hat 9.
The RH9 machine has Samba v2.27 running as WINS. It is set as master
browser and preferred master. However, it seems that it loses its
master and preferred browser status. When browsing the network from a
workstation, most of the computers or none of the computers, are
listed in the "View all Network Computers." Would like to have Samba
as master at all times. Any ideas that may help me out?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks to both of you for your help, I have made the changes, and it
appears the server is running as expected, for a couple of days now.
