samba - Sep 2004 - Browsing Sucks on VPN

Hi,

I am using Samba on RH9 for providing namaing services. We were using WINS
before for naming.
On networking neighborhood, I can see all computers (when I am in the office),
however when I am travelling, I am not able to see the list. Not only that, I am
unable to connect to my computer using \\NameOfComputer. I can connect through
\\MyIpAddress.

I could see the list of computers when I was using WINS in the past. Does anyone
know the solution to fix this on Samba.

Your help would be highly appreciated.

MSA

It looks like your client that is doing this, have you tried adding your 
wins/dns server to your vpn client setup? (In XP it is in properties > 
tcp/ip > properties > advanced > wins/dns of the vpn connection)
