Normally this wouldn't be an issue but we're currently using Desktop Authority to administer our local clients and would like to expand its capability to our branch office. In order to configure Desktop Authority properly we need our child domain to appear under "Microsoft Windows Network". The parent / child relationship is setup correctly and is replicating just fine, its just getting that domain to appear.

Here's a diagram of our network setup.

I think it may be a subnet issue with our corporate network not encompassing our branch office subnet. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, I figured out the problem.

Since our corporate and branch offices each have dedicated WINS servers, I setup our branch office to push their WINS database and our corporate office to pull from the branch. After I forced a replication everything worked as planned and the problem is now fixed.
