Entire Network Problems

I've been having problems with computers disappearing in
the Entire Network container. I know that these computers
are online and are powered on. When I go to Entire
Network, Microsoft Windows Network, then see my domain, on
some computers it says the domain is not accessible. But
when you search for a computer, you can find it. Another
thing, when all computers can be seen in the domain,
sometimes in a matter of 5 minutes, you can't see any
computers again. Do I need to reconfigure something in
DNS or DHCP to correct this problem? Any help on this
would greatly be appreciated. Thank you.

I doubt if DNS or DHCP have much to do with it. What you should be
looking at is the computer browser service. That is what drives the
Microsoft Windows network display.

For details of how this service works, see KB188001. For a
troubleshooting guide, see KB 188305.
