Okay here's the deal. I setup a Win2003 server. I have a few shared folders to the workgroup. The only way I can connect to the server is typing the address, i.e. \\Servername

But when I try to browse the network, the server does not show up. Is there an option I missed? ?
 
I have developed a similar issue in this recent thread and can't figure
it out either.

I checked some things in these threads having to do with
the "computer browser" service, but it did not help me.
Maybe it will help you out.
