I am running windows 2003 server. The problem i am having is that from the server, if i go to network neighborhood all the computers are not shown. Also, if i go to a client machine which is connected to the domain, and go to network neighborhood, it shows every computer in the domain except the server. It is like the server is set to be blind from the rest of the world. There is no problems with the communication lines between the server and the clients cause i can perform ping commands and run login scripts from the server to the client machines. I want to know how to make it so the server can go to network neighborhood and see all the computers in the domain, and also be able to do the same from workstation machines. |

This may seem like an elementry question, but have you joined the computer to the domain? |

I am making the assumption here that the 2003 server in question is not the domain controller. Two things spring immediately to mind. The first is that the computer has not been put onto the domain. The second is that the networking on the 2003 server has not been set up with nameserver/wins information. For example, "ping 192.168.0.1" may work but "ping www.mydomain" does not. |

I have set up all the workstations to the domain. i am pretty sure that the server is set up as the domain controller using active directory. I dont know what wins is or how it relates to how this would affect computers seeing each other in network neighborhood but will look into it. |

If physical connectivity is there between clients and server and if you can clearly verify it with PING etc..Try this one. Basically to see computers in Network Neighbourhood windows machines need to have NETBIOS ..pls install it on server and try again. Best of Luck!! |
