Re: Child Domain NetBIOS Issue

Network Neighborhood is completely independent of DNS. It is driven by
the computer browser service, an NT legacy app which uses Netbios names and
relies on broadcasts.
Because broadcasts don't cross routers, WINS is required to browse a
routed network. If all of your machines (including the servers) are
registering with the same WINS server, this should be working. You should
see the sub-domain's Netbios name and the workstations in that subnet in the
browse list from NN.
There is a description of the browser service in KB188001 and a
troubleshooter in KB188305 .

Hi,
Having a problem with a child domain and being able to browse or
connect to resources in it via NetBIOS names from the parent domain
(i.e. \\SERVERNAME or browsing through Network Neighbourhood - the
child domain's NetBIOS name isn't there).
The child domain is on a different subnet, WINS is running on a
server in the parent domain which is used by both parent and child
domain clients/servers.
DNS seems to be functioning correctly as resources can be located in
the child domain if the FQDN is used.
Any ideas??
