I have a client that has 7 Win2K Pro hosts connected as Peer-to-Peer, with 6 of them in use as data entry stations feeding the 7th host (I'll call it the Master, since it's not really a Server). Everything works fine, except for poor speed on two hosts (a cable problem, along with some minor config issues), so there's nothing really wrong. But while looking into it I noticed that from any data entry station it is possible to view all 6 such hosts, but the Master is not visible. From the Master, all 7 hosts are visible.

In every system I've seen or used if all hosts are configured properly, they all appear in My Network Places. Somehow, whoever it was that set this up managed to hide the Master from the rest, a slick trick in this case. I know it's not a foolproof security measure, but given the lack of computer skills of the data entry operators it is probably quite adequate. Monkey no-see, monkey no-do. How is this stunt accomplished? I can see a lot of practical uses for it in small office environments.
