I have a server in a workgroup and there are server on the
same network, yet when I go to this server it does not
list any of the other work groups nor will it list it's
self when I hit list of servers near me. Install on it is
dns-client/wins/ and it has a static ip address. It has
enable netbios over tcpip. This is the exact error
message. Microsoft kb only has one article which I have
already tried "The list of servers for this workgroup is
not currently available"

Has anyone seen this or know a fix.

Hi Tagee. Thank-you for your post.

One good article that will help you troubleshoot almost any NetBIOS
browsing issue is this one:

The specific error message that you mention in your post can be found in a
few articles. Most of these articles have troubleshooting/solution
suggestions:
