Cannot browse domains in entire network

I have a 3 domain network. My machine logs into domain1. But I need the ability for my machine to browse domain2 and domain3. If I open network places and entire network, I can't see the second and third domains, only the first. I know I can map drives and find computers by name, but for applications, I need to be able to browse the other domains.

I have an lmhosts file that allows me to resolve names and ping my servers in all three domains. The lmhosts file also has the domain entries for each domain. Am I missing a setting possibly?

Thanks in advance.
Joe.
 
Are you using DHCP or static IPs? Are the three domains on the same subnet? Do those domain controllers have a trusted relationship with each other? Nate Gagne
