Delay when browsing workgroup

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Hi,
Can someone tell me why I get a 20-30 sec. delay when I browse the
workgroup. When I browse the computer directly with "\\computername" it
is fast.
Using 2003 Server browsing with any client (Win2k or XP)

Regards
Paul
