We've got a couple of server clusters that reside on
different subnets, with a couple of 3600 routers (IOS
12.0) and Catalyst 2900 XL switches between them. The
systems are configured to use both WINS and DNS.
The problem we're having is that from either subnet the
servers on the other subnet are not visible in Network
Browser. Actual connectivity is not a problem. The
clusters can interact with each other, and if you do a
system search for one of the "invisible" servers, Network
Browser will find it. From one subnet you can map to
servers on the other subnet without any difficulty.
For customer service reasons, we'd like for all the
servers to be visible in the Net Browser. We've checked
system settings until we're cross-eyed, and everything
seems to be OK. We've flushed the NetBIOS tables, ensured
system visibility (net config server /hidden:no), made
sure that print sharing was enabled, removed all computer
comments, and done everything else we can think of, up to
and including a voodoo dance around the rack, but nothing
has worked.
From what other sysads tell me, this is a reasonably
common issue, but I can't find any solutions for it. Can
anyone here tell me how to fix this? Any help would be
appreciated!
