Viewing Multiple Domains

I have 2 Windows 2003 servers, each one being a seperate domain. I recently
got my first Vista pc and joined DOMAIN1 just fine. I can see and access all
Win XP clients in DOMAIN1.

My problem is getting access to DOMAIN2. With XP, I could be joined to
DOMAIN1 and be able to see and access DOMAIN2 from Windows Explorer. Using
Vista's File Explorer, I can only see DOMAIN1.

I should note, both domain servers are running in "Windows 2003" functional
level mode.

How can I view the DOMAIN2 server and it's clients while using a Vista
client connected to DOMAIN1?
 
I finally typed \\DOMAIN2SERVER\ in the run applet and got access to it.
After posting this message, I also realized that the XP clients in DOMAIN2
were showing in explorer. I guess I'm just used to seeing the
domains/clients in a tree view.

It is strange the DOMAIN2 clients show, but the DOMAIN2SERVER doesn't show
in explorer.

MS seems to have gone out of the way to make things worse.
