"Browsing" is documented as "Specifies whether shared printers are advertised". That sounds like printers on this host are advertised to other hosts on the network, but if that's what the parameter does, then "Browsing" is a misleading name for it. Is it supposed to mean that printers shared by other hosts are "advertised" in print dialogs on this host? That would be a very strange use of both "shared" and "advertised", but would agree better with "Browsing". It also looks like "Browsing" is redundant with "BrowseLocalProtocols", which is documented as "Specifies which protocols to use for local printer sharing". For any reasonable reading of the manual, "BrowseLocalProtocols none" should have the same effect as "Browsing No". It seems safest to turn off both, but I'm not at all sure whether that prevents network printers from showing up in my print dialogs. Björn Persson
