You have to use some kind of directory service to do what you want, whether
it's WINS or DNS is up to you but you don't get this for free.

Subject: View all PCs in "entire network"


Hi Folks:
 
Wondering about methods to see PCs on other subnets.  Each building here on
our complex is it's own subnet, and in the main building I'd like to be able
to see all PCs in "entire network".
 
We are currently not an Active Directory site, so PCs are not in a domain
and not registered in DNS.  I'd rather not run WINS servers if I can avoid
it.   I know this issue will go away once we migrate to Active Directory and
register PCs in DNS, but is there any way I can do this now?  If I need to
see just one PC I can get the name via nbtstat, but that can be cumbersome.
 
Thanks,
Tom
