subnet does not how up in domain under My Network Places
We have a remote location that is on a different subnet. All computers on the subnet have no problem authenticating with the domain and using resources.
However when I browse through my network places to our domain I do not see any of the computers on that subnet but I can browse to the shares of any of the computers no problem. This is not our only remote location on a different subnet and the others seem to not have this issue.
We are on a active directory domain and this was not an issue when it was a NT domain and I'm not exactly sure when it happened. There is no Domain controller on that subnet.
I also can see the computers in Active Directory and can manage them.
We are affraid this may cause an issue at some point as in some way shape or form those computer so not seem connected to the domain correctly.
Thanks

This is probably a WINS issue as we still have it around. I went through DNS but forgot WINS. I will comment back after I go through it.

Well I messed with Wins and DNS. Think I just ended up adding a zone to one of the DNS servers as all the others had all the entries. After a week or two now the subnet started showing up.

Well done and thank you for the points.

Is your router configured to pass all traffic regardless of type? I'm guessing you can ping those machines, if you can see shares on them, and remotely manage etc...
Are the machines on the subnet configured to use your AD's DNS, or some local ISP's DNS? There could be a problem with them showing up if they aren't updating their DNS info in the AD.
