Question : Have remote pc's show in the network neighborhood

I'm running Windows 2008 server with a VPN between 2 offices.  The pc's in the remote office are on the domain.  I can see them in the active directory, but not the network neighborhood.  How can I get them to be visible in the NN?

Answer : Have remote pc's show in the network neighborhood

This is a function of WINS. You need to have a primary WINS server setup and set your dhcp to forward the wins address to the client. Netbios used to fill this role and older clients are still dependent on it for the network browse feature.
