Re: 2 site's - vpn link - Slow local browsing

Yes, you need WINS. Browsing uses Netbios names and LAN broadcasts. The
only effective way to get in working in a WAN or a routed network is with
WINS. Without WINS there is no way that the Domain Master Browser can find
the master browser in the other segment to build a network-wide browse list.

You can use one WINS server for the combined network. If you set up a
WINS server at each site, make sure that they replicate.
