Well,

Here I go again, following up my own post... I just found the answer
I was looking for...

If I use:

dlsw icanreach netbios-exclusive

I disable netbios explorers. The assumption is that I will have
corresponding "dlsw icanreach netbios-name servername1" statements,
but I'm pretty sure that if I omit them, it will have the desired
effect.

Here's the link (watch the wrap):

/ibm_r/brprt2/brdlsw.htm#xtocid2671113

Has anyone done this before? Does anyone have a better method for
accomplishing this?

Alan
