Joining W2k and Win NT4.0 Domains

All

I have 2 domains. 1 is Windows 2000 (Native mode), the other is NT 4.
My goal is to be able to browse resources on both domains for the other
I have configured a Rass server so I can communicate over both networks. I can successfully ping hosts from the oppisite networks.

My problem is that when using the network neighborhood, i cannot see both domains. I only see the domain I am logged on to. What do I need to do so i can see both domains under network neighborhood.

I have DNS setup on both networks. My ultimate goal is to make the 2 domains trust each other for share access. Anyone know what I need to do , so i can see both domains in network neighborhood

Provide for NetBIOS name resolution, meaning WINS, on each domain
replicating to the other, and trusts between the domains.

Jeff is correct you need Wins servers. You also want to make sure the RAS
servers are NOT the PDC (PDC emulator on the W2K domain) because this makes
them multihomed and multihomed domain master browsers do not work well.
