You need one machine on the network to be the "master". It's
recommended on a small network that this be your primary file server.
It should be a machine that's on all the time (or at least more often
than other desktops).
Making a desktop machine that turns off from time to time master is a
bad idea, as when it turns off the other machines then get lost for a
while as they all fight for master status.
