Hi everybody ,

i have a technical problem which i hope SOMEBODY could answer for me. I have 7 switches and 80% of my computer is running win xp with no dc (domain controller)(all set to RUN in work group)
If i connect my manage switch in series 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 everything is ok but if i connect in 1-2 1-3 1-4 1-5 1-6 1-7 than view workgroup will go missing for my windows xp (unable to browser) (browstat status and browinfo will stop working and not give any respond)
Any suggestion (computer browser is off for almost all pc) for win vista, 7 it is ok can view in any configuration above.
Have tried to set my master browser (in win 2008 and linux server samba) to a higher setting with out any success.


thanks. Quote
