This message is from the Exchange server, SVR-1 is the domain controller and should be browse master, my qustion is why is the exchange server trying to promote itself?
BROWSER:8009
The browser was unable to promote itself to master browser. The computer that currently believes it is the master browser is SVR-1.

This error is from an app server it looks like PC-07 ( a newly introduced PC took broswer ):
BROWSER:8021
The browser service was unable to retrieve a list of servers from the browser master \\PC-07 on the network \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{D83DF
Browser master: \\PC-07
Network: \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{D83DF
This event may be caused by a temporary loss of network connectivity. If this message appears again, verify that the server is still connected to the network. The return code is in the Data text box.

Thanks for the info. I will check the exchange server and set it to false.
About the first item. That error was not on PC-7 but from a w2k3 app server, based on the error it can't talk to the BM - PC-7. My concern is why does it think that PC-7 is the BM. Funny thing is that I can't get to PC-7 at all, can't even ping to it. I called the user and she said she can get on the internet just fine. (just in case I made sure she wasn't running FW SP2).
Please advise
