SUMMARY
If you create an Lmhosts file on a local computer, if the file includes a #INCLUDE statement, the preloaded entries from the centralized Lmhosts file may not be displayed in the network basic input/output system (NetBIOS) name cache until name resolution is attempted. This behavior occurs even if the centralized Lmhosts file contains entries that have the #PRE designation.



MORE INFORMATION
Only entries that are specified in the local Lmhosts file are preloaded when you initially start a computer. After name resolution occurs, the centralized Lmhosts file is processed, and then any entries that have the #PRE designation are loaded.
