I have 2 subnets. Subnet 1 has an NT WINS server. Subnet 2 has a Samba
server acting as domain master browser and local master browser
for a workgroup.
If I view the network neighborhood from a Win 95 PC on Subnet 1
(call it PC_A), I can see all the hosts in the workgroup on both subnets.
If I view the network neighborhood from a Win 95 PC on Subnet 2
(call it PC_B), I cannot see PC_A. I CAN 'map a network drive' on PC_B
for a directory that has been shared by PC_A.
Both PCs are in the same workgroup (which happens to be the same
workgroup as the Samba server).
What might be the reason(s) that I can map a network drive of
a PC, but cannot see it in the network neighborhood?
