Have a Windows 2003 Server and I just got a new PC with XP Pro, this PC
joined the domain using the network wizard. I have mapped network drives with
no problem. My issue is when I go to “My Network Places� click on “Explore�,
then “Entire Network�, then “Microsoft Windows Network� I see my Domain, but
when I double click on it none of the computers that are in this domain are
shown. I would greatly appreciate help on this matter.

Asymmetrical visibility in a domain or workgroup can come from any of several
problems. Start with my article:
<http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/10/irregularities-in-workgroup-visibility.html>
http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/1...isibility.html

If no help provide "browstat status" and "ipconfig /all" from the problem
computer, and from 2 of the properly working computers. Read this article, and
linked articles, and follow instructions precisely:

Create/join a workgroup instead of domain when mapping drives.

I am confused with your reply. I don't have workgroups, all PC's in my
network are members of the domain.

Ok, I found a resolution! I had to put the IP address of my WINS Server in
the TCP/IP properties, reboot the PC and that fixed the issue. Thanks for
your reply.
