domains not listed in Network Neighbor

By Jrr5 ·
My network is a member of a trust relationship with 4 other domains. On my side of the trust we have a majority of 2000 servers, but we are still a NT domain structure; no mixed mode AD as of yet. I can open network neighborhood and see all the other domains. On a pc in one of the trusting domains (all NT 4 servers)all I can see under network neigborhood is my own domain and no others. Name resolution does not seem to be an issue. We can ping by name as well as use the net view command to access shares. Any idea why I can't see the other domains?

Its probably a WINS issue.. try using the same IPs given on your other domain serves in your PC as well then check. If you can ping them, check this, should be ok.

The other domains are probably in different IP networks, Check the subnet against one of the working workstations and also the other IP properties such as the WINS server IP address and default gateway.

I would guess that that PC is announcing itself
as a browse master (an old MS LAN Manager
hangover) for the domain... Turn this
off in the network settings, and it should pick
up a correct browse table from the domain.
