Missing Computers in "Entire Network"

[Udir]

We have a network that is broken off the main network by a Cisco router. The remote network ip range is part of my AD site and the computers can log in. There is not DC on the network. For some reason the computers on my remote network do not show up under our domain in "Entire Network"

Ideas and suggestions?

Your Cisco Router will not pass NetBios broadcast... The computers in "entire network" show by netbios name. Try seperating the two segments with a switch. or adding an access list to pass netbios traffic.

I hope this is of some help.

I don't think it would be a wise idea to start passing netbios broadcast across the router. In fact, when you set ip no forward-protocol UDP 137 and 139 on the router after setting the helperaddress to forward DHCP specifically to block netbios broadcasts. You do this to prevent mater browser issues and 8003 errors. What you can do is use WINS. Setup a WINS server on your main network and point everyone to it.

I enabled WINS on the PDC on my main network. I updated the remote networks DHCP and added the WINS server to auto populate. I am seeing the computers on that network in the WINS database, but when I browse "Entire Network", they still don't show up. I am also configured to look at the WINS database, as it the server.

Idea's?
