I recently upgraded a branch office from WinNt to Win2k Pro (10 PC's).
Now the upgraded PC's can only view the local PC's ( in the Branch's subnet) and not the rest of the Domain. Prior to the upgrade the complete domain was viewable thru NetworkNeighbourhood.

The Branch is connected via ISDN and the PC's are using LMHOST, and are loaded with NetBEUI, just like before. There is no BDC at the Branch.
The H.O. IP is 192.168.1.0 and the branch is 192.168.4.0, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Adage - The tcpip stack is different in 2000 than in nt4.0. I had a similar problem with cisco routers on a frame network. If you are using cisco routers you can add an ip helper statement in the config file and specify your wins/dns server ip address and it will forward the network list to your local network. If you are not using cisco routers try turning on wins on your main server and in the client pc's put the ip address of the wins server in the 2000 client wins section of the tcpip. Ican give you more info if needed. mjamell@mlaj.com

Have u checked ur TCP/ip settings? The problem should be there. Check everything your gateway or proxy settings

Set up a DNS service on the 2000 server, and configure the TCP/IP settings to use that server for DNS...

You can specify this in your DHCP scope so that it's automatic, unless you have every PC statically assigned.
