Pc not showing in Network

All our PCs on our domain are not showing up in the Network List. We have
lots of PC but only few of them are showing up, any suggestions or help will
be appreciated.
Here is the configuration.
Operating systems, Vista and XP (Some PCs of both flavours are not showing up)
Domain setup : Yes
File And Printer Sharing: Enable
Network Discovery: Enabled

Please advise.

Re: Pc not showing in Network

Net view should list all sharing computers. If the computer is not in the
list, run net share. Do you receive any errors?

Re: Pc not showing in Network

I tried running net view, it gave me the list of network computer, but this
is not the full list, this is the same list as Satrt -> Network give the
devices connected on the network.
Net Share, i run that command from a PC which is showing up on network and
the other which is not showing up on the network. Both gave me the same
result.
Errors : where do u want me to see the errors, i dont get any errors

Thanks

Re: Pc not showing in Network

Are the computers that are not showing up actually sharing anything?

Normally, domain environments don't share between workstations, but
rather all workstations will be able to see the shared resources on
the servers (Domain controller, Exchange server, file server, etc) but
normally don't see each other.

Why are you trying to get the workstations to see each other? Are
there some unique resources that need to be accessed by all users?

Maybe if you could describe your network in a little more detail it
would help.
