An election takes place to select the master browser on a network so it could be any of your machines - setting "local master = yes" simply means that machine can take part in the election and it _may_ become the master browser if there is no "better" alternative.
The default is for Samba to participate in browser elections, so setting "local master = yes" isn't necessary - it's the default.
"os level = 20" is also the default, which means it will only "beat" (in the election) any Windows system less than a Windows NT/2000 primary domain controller - see https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_s...l#INDEX-57 for more details. If you want LE to become the master browser you'll most likely need to set "os level = 33" in order to "beat" more recent Windows systems (7, 8, 10 etc.).
If you absolutely want to make sure your LE machine becomes the master browser, you'll need something like:
Code:
[global]
local master = yes
os level = 255
preferred master = yes
