We have two NT servers arranged as PDC and BDC and constantly get errors

regarding the election for a master browser. Server3 (the BDC) keeps

receiving the error that it cannot contact Server2 (the PDC) to complete the

election process. This seems to be creating excess traffic and when the BDC

is connected to the network all network traffic is slowed to a crawl and we

are not able to access the internet (DSL) through the PDC. In running

network monitor there is no other traffic on the BDC. We have done the

registry edit to disable the BDC trying to become a master but it still

causes problems. Has anyone experienced this? Thanks for any help.
