My Network Places & Microsoft Windows Network

[Scott]

From time to time, when I click My Network Places, there was nothing below
that and I need to press F5 to get Entire Network. When I click the
workgroup or domain under Entire Network, it takes over 20 seconds to show
the all nodes. Sometimes, I need to type the fully qualified path and get
connected to the Windows server 2003 std or workstations. It seems to slow
to normal users. Our network is quite small and just have two Windows
server 2003 std and about 40 workstations. Can someone advise how to speed
up this process.

Thanks,

Scott
