RE: QNTC file system (mostly) empty

Vern,

Basically, the improving performance part just talk about turning off QNTC's
default behavior of verifying the availability of every server on the "list"
before showing it on the screen. ( or allowing access via QNTC).

FYI: we do have the environment variable set to not check.

The "list" of servers, is supposed to come from the browse master, which
should be the WINS server if I understand correctly.

What's interesting is that both partitions use the same WINS server.  But
apparently, the primary one was having trouble.

Strange,
Charles
