Way To Prevent Doamin Controller Release?

[userforum]

Hi,

 

We have a client having trouble with their network, now and then the workstations can not talk with the server anymore (can not access files on the shared folders etc, email doesn't work, can not browse internet etc) untill they restart the server and everything is working fine again.

 

We have determined the problem is the following event:

Event ID 8003

 

The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer "computer name" that believes that it is the master browser for the domain on transport NetBT_Tcpip_{70CEAA76-DAE3-443A-B45A-625D742F27BB}. The master browser is stopping or an election is being forced.

 

We have performed all the solutions we can find on the system in question to prevent this from happened but it still happens (sometimes nothing for a week then a couple times a day for a few days) and now a 2nd system is also causing the same error as well.

 

What I want to know is if there is a way we can tell the server that if it ever gets another computer saying that it thinks its the master browser then rather then the master browser stopping on an election being force (since we think thats whats causing the server to need to be restarted to fix everything) it just goes no your not I am and ignores it and continues to work as normal so that it does not matter if these systems continue to do this behaviour.

No one have any ideas?
