Hi All, Ive recently built a new network of 3 servers for a client and
configured the PDC as DNS, DHCp and Routing and Remote access server
(2 NICs)

Everyting is working ok apart from one thing... When I browse the
network (My Network Places > Entire Network > Microsoft Windows
Network > DomainName) I can see all the servers and workstations apart
from the PDC?

I dont think this is by design as I have built a number of networks
now and this is the first time it's happened. Does anyone know where
to start looking for a solution, or what it could be?

DNS is working well
DHCP is working well
Routing and Remote access is working well.
Domain usage is all working fine!

It's a Windows Server 2003 Standard and as of today (13 June 08) it is
fully patched.

Since it is multi-homed (Multiple Network interfaces), you should check your
bindings.
In Control Panel open network connections, click on Advanced in the menu,
select Advanced settings. In Advanced settings, move the internal NIC to the
top of the connections pane, then select the External NIC, and clear the
check boxes from the Bindings pane for File sharing and Client for Microsoft
Networks, Then click OK to exit Advanced settings, then on the External NIC,
disable NetBIOS (WINS tab) and make sure NetBIOS is set to enabled on the
internal NIC.

Extra Configuration is required on Windows Servers that have RAS enabled,
follow KB292822 for this extra configuration.
