Win2k Browse issues

by chris.. . Updated 22 years, 8 months ago

Hi,

I have a three site Win2k server environment connected via Firewall VPN WAN links (can’t afford point to point lines) each site has at least 2 Domain Controllers. The issue is that intermittantly the browsing for one site or the other fails to see the other two.

We are able to connect to resources via UNC pathing using the Machine Name and or IP but you cannot browse to them. This isn’t too much of an issue execpt that when you do a search for a resource such as printers or specific shares it just don’t wanna work.

I’m fine with living with this but my users can’t seem to remember where their resources live if it isn’t mapped for them. Thus I spend a lot of time during these browse failures helping people UNC map to the resource. Thus I am out of my office, and dealing with cranky users.

HELP
