We are having Windows 2003 as a domain controller. All Windows XP
professional machines are added to the domain. But from the xp machine i can
view only certain computers in the entire network, and also from server i can
browse or view certain computersin the entire network. Sometimes i receive a
message "The list of workgroup for this server is unavailable. Even though
the computer's are configured to domain.
 
We may have two issues here. Do you enable and share all computers? On one computer that can not be seen, type net share. What do you receive? For "The list of workgroup for this server is unavailable", I would check the DNS or WINS settings.
