Network neighborhood / computers near me

This is getting a bit frustrating. Back ground:
- This is a mixed network with both Novell and Microsoft
servers. The network client is Novell's. We are running
Ethernet, Pure TCP/IP and have NetBIOS over TCP/IP
enabled.
DNS and DHCP service is provided by Netware. We are not
running Wins. The Netware guy here says its not netware
causing the challenge.

The Challenge

When I attempt to run MBSA - Base Line Security Analyzer,
I do not get a complete report of the computers on the
network segment. I get a large majority of them but not
all of them. I have checked the client setting on a
computer I can see and one I can't, both appear to be
identical. When I run Computers near me, I can see the
same computers I can run Analyzer on. But no others.

Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks
 
Do you have multiple subnets or just one? If you have more than one subnet
you will need Wins for browsing to function correctly.
