SYMPTOMS
========
When you are troubleshooting browsing services, running the "browstat.exe
status" command may not return the server list. For example:
Status for domain Domain1 on
transport \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{A6CF5547-5F56-443D-8EDE-EB587696F543}
Browsing is active on domain.
Master browser name is: SERVER01
Master browser is running build 2195
3 backup servers retrieved from master SERVER01
\\SERVER02
\\SERVER03
\\SERVER04
Unable to retrieve server list from SERVER01: 1230
This problem may occur if a Systems Management Server (SMS) site is installed on
the domain master browser.
