Hi,

Windows network browsing utilizes broadcasts to build a browse list. To browse computers across different subnets, you will need to implement a Microsoft WINS server. Configure all your servers and clients to utilize the WINS server.

Hope this helps.

Hi ,

Yes we have done it the same , there is a wins server in central site and clients in branch office may use it.But still network browsing does not work and also if we search for a computer in central site from branch office with its name or ip address nothing will be founded .
