[ProgSoc] machine names on windows networks



Hi

I am new to windows networking, but have configured two networks of
windows PCs in different (windows) domains to be able to ping each other
thru the use of a 'routing PC' - a windows 2000 box with IP forwarding
enabled and an IP address on each network.

I can ping machines by IP address and by name. But when I open
explorer and list the machines in the remote domain, it only finds the
local machine. Although I can ping all the others in the remote domain,
it only lists the local machine. This happens on any machine in either
direction.

What gives? What do I need to configure?

Geoff
