that are on-line and authenticated without going through the Hamachi server.
The Hamachi-authenticated network is a completely separate network from our
internal network. All Hamachi network addresses have a 5.x.x.x address.
Well, look at the browstat and net config logs. NetBT is bound to 2 TCPIP
devices, and Hamachi is one.

Both browsing (ability to see other computers), and name resolution (ability to
identify other computers) will take longer to work, with NetBT bound to multiple
transports, and using each to get results. Having the Hamachi transports is
going to have the same effect as having IPX/SPX, IPV6, or NetBEUI - it will drag
down performance.

Now I don't know that Hamachi is the only problem here. And I'm not sure that
simply removing Hamachi will solve your current symptoms. But if you're asking
for help still, I'll tell you that that's where I would start.
(From AMD):Both AMD and AUTO have Hamachi adapters; are on the same Hamachi network; as
Status for domain APS on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{E8AE3701-52F9-4C74-ABC1-1B85CBADAA36}
Unable to retrieve server list from SERVER3: 64
A 64 error ("The specified network name is no longer available.") is another
name resolution problem. AMD is another Hamachi client, so I think we need to> resolve that first.
far as I can tell, are set up the same on the Hamachi network. AMD returns
the error 64, but AUTO doesn't. In addition, I have tried to set them up the
same on the internal APS network, too. It appears that I have made a mistake
somewhere, though. Any ideas on where I should look.
But there's yet another issue.I don't know why Server2 only saw 4 servers on the domain at the time that
(From Server2):
Status for domain APS on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{54D22944-8771-4780-9F6F-228C068BC63E}
Browsing is active on domain.
Master browser name is: SERVER3
Master browser is running build 3790
2 backup servers retrieved from master SERVER3
\\SERVER2
\\SERVER3
There are 4 servers in domain APS on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{54D22944-8771-4780-9F6F-228C068BC63E}
There are 1 domains in domain APS on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{54D22944-8771-4780-9F6F-228C068BC63E}
Do a "net view" from Server2 and Server3, and compare the results.
there were 6 of them. Unfortunately, I did not know about "net view" at that
time.
You're learning - so am I. I just learned about "net config" a couple months
ago.
I just ran "net view" on both of them, again, and they both list the same 7
machines. (When all computers are up on the APS network, there are 7 of
them.) And, now, when I run "browstat status" on Server2, it outputs the same
number of servers as Server3. Perhaps, it was just a momentary glitch. (How's
that for whichful thinking?)
Both browsing and name resolution are cache based - they don't operate on a
second by second basis. So if your computers ever get disconnected or turned
off, the cache on each computer won't be up to date. And no 2 computers will
always refresh / update cache at the same time. Out of date cache leads to
discrepancies like you just mentioned.
So are your problems solved now? Let us know if we need to do some more
diagnoses.
