subnet browsing

I am running samba-2.2.2 on RedHat 7.1 as a DMB and WINS in
one subnet and samba-2.2.1a-4 on RedHat 7.2 as a LMB on 
another subnet.  

an abbreviated DMB's smb.conf:  where aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd is the IP
address for PHYS2, the LMB and www.xxx.yyy.zzz is the IP address
for PHYS1, the DMB:
[global]

   workgroup = PHYSICS
   netbios name = PHYS1

. . .

   socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192

   remote browse sync = aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd               (PHYS2)
   remote announce = aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd                  (PHYS2)

   local master = yes
   os level = 64         
   domain master = yes
   preferred master = yes
   domain logons = yes

name resolve order = wins bcast lmhosts hosts
wins support = yes
wins proxy = yes
dns proxy = yes

an abbreviated LMB's smb.conf:

[global]

   workgroup = PHYSICS
   netbios name = PHYS2

...

   security = user
   socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192

   remote browse sync = www.xxx.yyy.zzz               (PHYS1)
   remote announce =  www.xxx.yyy.zzz    

   local master = yes         
   os level = 64
   domain master = no
   preferred master = yes
   wins support = no
   wins server = www.xxx.yyy.zzz                      (PHYS1)
   dns proxy = yes
         
                    
So, browsing across the two subnets works for the workgroup 
Physics.  However, I would like to use these two servers to 
inable browsing for several workgroups. i.e. if the Physics 
workgroup is the Entire Neighborhood, I want to enable 
browsing across subnets for all the workgroups in Physics, 
not just one workgroup.

Has anyone acomplished this? Any suggestions?

thanks
