Hi,<br />
<br />
I realise it must be something with NETBIOS name resolution OR WINS but We were not using WINS and were able to do this before. It has just stopped after introducing Windows Server 2008 R2 Domain controller in the system.<br />
<br />
Anything else am I missing.? Please let me know.<br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
We have windows server 2003 domain with windows XP and windows 7 machines. The domain has 4 sites. I just introduced windows 2008 R2 domain controller.<br />
<br />
I used to be able to see all computers in computer browser but now it will display the computers only within each site. So when any user brosw entire network, only computers belonging to that site will be visible.<br />
<br />
Is there anyway I can get computers from entire domain listed when browsing entire network.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.
