SYMPTOMS

When you select the Show Domain Members Only option on the View menu of Server Manager, Windows NT version 3.5 member servers appear as Workstations. If you clear the selection for this option, the member servers appear as Servers.

CAUSE

The trust accounts for a workstation and for a member server are exactly the same. Browser enumeration, which is disabled when you select the Show Domain Members Only option, is needed to distinguish between a member server and a workstation.
