Two LAN segments and My Network Places?

Hello,

I've got two LAN segments connected by a Windows Server 2003 machine acting
as a LAN router. The router shows computers from both segments in "My
Network Places" while machines on each segment show only those on their own
segment. I can ping and connect to machines across segments; they just
don't show up in one another's My Network Places. Can anyone tell me if
that's normal or whether I should do something to resolve it?

Thanks,

Steve

Yes it is quite normal when you using a master browser as a
router. Have a look:

Thank you very much for the link--I've read it, followed the instructions
and restored computes from both segments to "My Network Places."

Thanks again,

Steve
