If the remote users are domain members, they will probably be able to
get a browse list of the LAN machines if you are running WINS on the LAN.
When the remote needs a browse list, it will send a name request for the
special Netbios name <domainname 1b> , which is the Domain Master Browser.
WINS should reply with the IP address for the DMB, and the client gets the
browse list (using the IP address). If you are running WINS but this isn't
happening, you will need to monitor the traffic on the VPN link to see where
it fails.
