My organisation has a WAN setup with each of the units in their own domain. From the headquaters, I am not able to see the other domains in the Network Neighbourhood yet the other domains can see all the domains on my network.
Also name resolution seem to be an issue (we use WINS only) and as such we are having serious issues as these guys work real time from the Headquarters.

That's good.

You probably don't have sufficiant privlage to view the network.

What are you trying to say or ask? WINS is ok unless you have 100's of workstations or an exchange server then I'd suggest using DNS.

I would have thought it would be very difficult to run a network without DNS unless you have a very reliable way of updating the Hosts files on each computer.
