A resource kit gem and an enigma  Windows NT networks contain
machines that serve many functions. Two of the most important NT
functions are browse master and domain controller. You usually
don't need a utility to discover which of your machines are
domain controllers because you must explicitly create your
domain controllers. But computers become browse masters because
the other NT and non-NT machines in their workgroup elect them
to that task, and sometimes you need to figure out which
computer is acting as browse master. (For more information about
the browse master election process, see George Spalding, "Too

Windows NT Server 4.0 Resource Kit includes a tool for finding
your work-group's browse master and a similar tool for finding
domain controllers.  Jewel of a Tool wrench Imagine that your
