We still need to use "My Network Place"! It's not my decision.
Here the problem:
We have multiple routed subnets... I understand the fact that on each
subnet there is a Master Browser election. This Master Browser must
communicate with the Domain Master Browser to get the entire network
shared ressources of each subnets. The problem is, sometime,... I SAID
SOMETIME, depending who is electing as Master Browser on a particular
subnet, we have a partiel browsing list... i.e. only the network
ressource of this particular subnet. It's look like that the Master
Browser don't receive the entire list from the Domain Master
Browser... However, this Master Browser can ping by name... can browse
the AD of this Domain Master Browser. If we shutdown this Master
Browser... a new Master Browser is electing on this subnet... and NOW,
we get the entire network list.
Why some workstations on the same subnet who acting as Master Browser
can get the entire browser list from the Domain Master Browser and
some others workstations DON'T ???? All workstations on this subnet
have the same TCP/IP... DNS, WINS configuration. They all get their
TCP/IP setting from the DHCP server.
What can I do? What do you suggest?? Please, don't tell me to read the
Microsoft Technet or something like that... I almost read all this
stuff regarding the "BROWSING BLABLA" but nothing interresting for my
problem !! I need EXPERT !!!!!
I'm CONFUSE... and I need HELP !!!
