The list you see (or don't see!) under microsoft windows network is
built by the computer browser service. Normally the domain controller would
be the domain master browser and it would build this list. Does the DC have
multiple NICs or is it used as a remote access server? Both of these things
can upset browsing.
The browser service is described in KB188001 and there is a
troubleshooting guide in KB188305. Problems with multihomed browsers is
discussed in KB191611 . Note that these are all old KB numbers because the
browser service is an NT legacy system.
