Without knowing your setup it's hard to do much with this....you didn't give
us much to go on. How about an unedited ipconfig /all from a client on that
network, and from your SBS server?

What do you mean by "see" ? Check your DNS (IPs and suffix). If you
want to browse a la network neighborhood, you'll need a WINS server
in each location.

I suggest you connect this office's network to yours via VPN or
leased line - and if it's big enough to warrant it, even put a
local DC in there. VPN client software on individual computers is
not the best option when you've got a remote office.
