Cannot "see" Windows Server 2003 SMB server in Entire Network?


Recommended Posts

I've installed multiple Windows Server 2003 servers. All have immediately

displayed in Entire Network. One particular machine refuses to show. Have

checked all DNS settings, netbios over TCPIP - nothing seems different than

any other install. Can anyone offer something I can check? I'm out of options

at this point...

Hello rafoszcz,

 

Is it in a different subnet located? Then you need a WINS server in each

subnet. Can be that not all machines are displayed in network neighbourhood.

 

Best regards

A single subnet - WINS server configured on the single 2003 SMB server. That

isn't it but thanks...

I know this sounds silly but.... is there an entry for the 2003 SMB server

in WINS?

 

Can you browse the SMB server from Windows Explorer; \\nameOfSMBserver

Are there shares on it?

I am having the same problem, but with Windows 2000 server. I have put

Norton AV on it and I could see it on the network, but when I also combined

IIS with it, I no longer see it on the network. Any suggestions?
