SUMMARY
=======
There are three different domains a workstation can be listed in: workstation,
logon, and other. Each of these domains is described below:
Domain Description
------ -----------
Workstation This domain is the domain name you specify when you
start your workstation using the /domain switch in
the LANMAN.INI file. It is also called the
"primary" domain.
Logon This domain is the domain name you specify when you
log on to the network. If you do not specify a
domain name, you automatically log on in the
"workstation" domain.
Other These domains are the domain names you list in the
"othdomains" entry of the LANMAN.INI file.
Your workstation receives ONLY the domain-wide messages that are broadcasted to
your "workstation" domain. Your workstation doesn't receive messages that are
sent to your "logon" or "other" domains. However, "logon" and "other" domains
can be used for a server announcement.
For example, if your workstation domain is "abc" and your logon domain is "xyz",
you receive messages sent to "abc", but not messages sent to "xyz". NET VIEW
lists the servers in all three domains.
