An object entry is the name of a resource (such
  as node, disk, or application) and its associated
  attributes, as stored by DCE cds.

  The generic object icon associated with an object entry
  in the Browser display is a cube with shaded sides. The
  Browser displays this icon when it does not recognize
  the class of an object. Otherwise, it displays a class-
  specific icon. Special icons exist for nodes, for
  example.

  You can use the Filters menu to selectively display
  only objects of a specific class. You can filter only
  one object class at a time. To change the filter,
  choose a new class from the Filters menu.
