I'll take that one! :-)
There's a configuration parameter under "Network/File and Printer
Sharing for Microsoft Networks/Properties" called "Browse Master".
Set it to "Disabled". RAVEN will no longer attempt to become
the browse master after you make that change. It's a Good Idea
to make that change to all Win95 machines that are on the same
numbered network as your Samba machine.
As you might guess, I just went through a browser war here. :-(
