I have two 2003 DCs on a subnet. When I do a "browstat status" on DC00, it
reports DC00 (itself) is the Master Browser and reports 3 servers as backups,
and DC00 is in that list.

When I do a "browstat status" on DC01, it reports DC00 is the master, and 3
servers are backups (with DC00 on it as well), and 2 server different than
what it reported on DC00. It also reports "Unable to retrieve server list
from DC00: 64"

So, I think I need to reg hack DC00 and set it to Auto, set DC01 to true
(the one I want to be the master), and choose other backups and set them to
Auto (If I want), and all other servers to FALSE.

Then force an election, making DC01 the winner, DC00 the backup. Am I correct?

Hello,

Did you go ahead with this, I am thinking of doing the same thing, and wondered what kind of effect (if any) it had.
