I have a strange issues with browser lists. I have four servers that have
one master browser on domain xxxx. The workstations on the network
however(XP and 2000) have another master browser which is a XP machine for
the same domain xxxx. All the computers are on the same subnet. The master
browsers have different build numbers. The master browser for the servers is
a Windows 2000 server along with three backup browsers which are two 2003's
and one 2000. I need to get all these PC's on one master browser list.
Right now the workstation list has all the workstations but no servers and
server list all servers and no workstations. We have a network copier that
depends on the browse list to send to server via SMB but can't because the
server is not listed. Any ideas?

Confused by your description/setup. You have a domain, yes? and you also
have a workgroup on the same physical network/same switch/router, right? If
that's correct, why?
