It is a browser service issue. Could be that the browser service isn't
running on the server or there is an issue with some browsemaster. All
of that is hocus pocus you are lucky when it works stuff for the most
part anyway. It is generally best not to depend on the browser stuff.

We've discovered recently that one of our servers isn't listed in the domain
list while browsing, although you can "run" to it, Ping by name, and for all
intents and purposes it's still there. Just not listed in the browser.
What could be going on? This has never happen before. It's always been
there and now it's not.
