Entire Network missing machines?

Hello,

Ok, probably a dumb question but i'll ask anyway. I have a small network,
consisting of 4 subnets. In each subnet, there is a local Windows 2003
DNS/Wins/DHCP server. Clients in each site are configured via DHCP to point
to the local DNS/WINS resolvers. The DNS/WINS servers are all DC's.

DNS is replicated and so is WINS. DNS via AD replication and WINS via a
hub/spoke replication partner setup.

In each site, if I browse My Network Places | Entire Network, I only see
machines local to that subnet instead of ALL machines on the network.

What the heck am I missing!?

That should work if WINS is replicating. WINS should allow the master
browsers to communicate directly.

The computer browser service is still essentially the same as it was in
NT. The standard tool for browser problems is still browstat. See KB 188305

is there an easy way to see if the replications are working? I guess I
could tear down the replication partners and set them up fresh...?
