Right. I've seen that EXACTLY (and currently have the same problem,
the workgroup designated is displayed, but no individual machines)
I have read that lowering the MTU from 1500 to a lower 14xx size
can help (I have not tried that yet)...

Takes care of that...

Can you add the ip and name to a "HOST" file and see if it makes a
difference? Enable the LMhosts lookup after... ??
I've gotten my machines to VPN or Remote Desktop, but not RD thru
the VPN (Like I want)... I get the same 'congealed' Workgroup name
as present but with no individual machines. Can you VPN only?
The VPN client is avail. for Win98 at MS (I believe it is)...
