Browsing over a WAN

[briteeyez]

Hi

I am have a trust relationship setup between my two offices. I want to be able to browse through Network Neighbourhood to see all their devices and resources on their Network. From reading I understand Wins would allow me to do this. Can someone assist me in the setting up of this process.

Well if you have a w2k server then ensure that WINS is installed on the server. Then on all the locals ensure that they are all part of the same workgroup and that they are using wins resolution.

I feel it's worth mentioning that M$ WINS isn't really used much anymore unless you still have w95's in your network. Try researching

and search for W2k WINS Setup or something..
