Which Samba docs suggest that Win9x can be a local master browser?  The only
information I've ever seen makes it quite clear that Win9x doesn't carry out
LMB functionality properly.

I can't see any differences between the configuration described in this
article, and the configurations that I've used; yet I have never seen Win95
function as a proper LMB.

Are there other KB articles which give more information about how to make this
work?
