Domain Computers not showing up in Network
Whenever I try to view the Network Computers on any machine on my domain, I can only see 5 servers. There should be about 15 servers and 50 workstations.
I have confirmed that Netbios over TCP/IP is enabled.
All the proper services are enabled and automatic. Computer Browser, DHCP Client, DNS Client, Network Connections, Network Location Awareness, RPC, Server, Workstation, TCP/IP Netbios helper
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: Also, I am able to browse to all the servers and workstations by going to \\hostname

Are all the computers in the same subnet?

I'm pretty sure the computers not displayed are windows 7 WSs. Check the network discovery settings on these workstations under Network and sharing center.Tunde Abagun MCP,MCSA,MCTS,MCITP en p "for the love of Computers"

You're pretty sure? Actually they're a mix of Windows XP, Windows 7, Server 2003 and Server 2008.

We do not have a 3rd party firewall and the Windows firewall is disabled. We do not use wireless. It is a gigabit ethernet domain.
Also, when attempting to run net view from command prompt, it errors out saying "System error 64 has occurred. The specified network name is no longer available"

Is the built-in firewall are disabled on both side.windows xp and windows server?
You have to disable the Server Message Block (SMB) Signing to fix the "System error 64 has occurred. The specified network name is no longer available" with the net view command in cmd.

Yes both client and server side Windows firewalls are disabled. I went ahead and disalbed the SMB signing. We'll see if that has any effect. Thanks for the help.

This did not fix my problem. I figured it out on my own. For the community's benefit, this service had someone become set to manual across my domain. I set it to automatic through group policy.
