Yes, this should give you network "browsing" via Network Neighborhood,
etc. Though my experience says that MS peer-to-peer over TCP/IP can be
flakey (probably a result of MS impementation of a flakey IP stack).
And yes, you would -still- get those anoying packets. Especially if it's
part of the (Network Neighborhood) browser election process since that's
part of fulfilling the first requirement of having "full MS networking."

Will this give me the full range of MS Networking including network

I would still have broadcast problems, I would think, and would still
need to
suppress diald either through diald rules or firewall rules, no?
