Remote browsing

I am attempting to set up remote browsing on 2 different subnets.  I am
using 2 Solaris boxes using samba 2.0.2.  Each subnet has different a
different workgroup.  on subnet "A" the workgroup is "workA".  On subnet "B"
the workgroup is "workB".  I have the following lines in the smb.conf.

On subnet "A" on samba server A
os level = 66
domain master = yes
local master = yes
preferred master = yes
wins support = yes
dns proxy = yes
hosts allow = subnetA subnetB 172.0.0.1
remote announce = subnetB.255/workA
remote browse sync = "samba server B"

On subnet "B" on samba server B
os level = 33
domain master = yes
local master = yes
preferred master = yes
wins support = yes
dns proxy = yes
hosts allow = subnetB subnetA 172.0.0.1
remote announce = subnetA.255/workB
remote browse sync = "samba server A"

Using a Windows98 system from subnet "A" I can find the remote system and
browse it.  From the same Win98 system I click on entire network and it
brings up workA and workB workgroup.  When I try to access through the
workgroup it responds with

workB is not accessible.

The computer or sharename could not be found.  Make sure you typed it
correctly, and try again.

What I want to be able to do is browse workgroups and see all the system on
the other subnet.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make this
work?
