Hi,
You are correct, both netdiag and evenviewer show problems finding the
domain controller, finding a primary authoritative DNS server, etc. Given
this, (and that I am new to a DC'd windows network), let me explain where I
assume the problem is.
The network has a dsl router which only some machines are allowed to use for
internet access. The machines that do not use the internet access, have
their DNS settings to obtain dns automatically (and these can browse all
domain entities fine). The machines that have internet access have their dns
server address set to the ones supplied by the ISP. These machines, with the
manually set dns addresses cannot browse the local domain machines and users.
And thus the question: How can I set the dns settings so that the machines
with internet access have not only internet access but also the ability to
browse the domain users? (Remember, the machines can connect to the domain
controller to run programs and share files as they are right now. Also, all
the machines can browse all the other machines via "Network Neighborhood".
It's just that all the security features where domain users and computers
SHOULD be listed, only include the local machine entities and the domain
users and machines are NOT shown)
Thanks again for the help.

Verify that it is using only domain controllers as it's preferred and
alternate DNS servers in tcp/ip properties and as shown with ipconfig /all.
Check the logs with Event Viewer to see if any problems are found and run
the support tool netdiag on it to see if it reports any relevant problems.
To control what users can logon to a domain computer manage the user right
for logon locally to only include the authorized users/groups which can be
done in Local Security Policy under local policies-user rights. Be very
careful with the user right for deny logon locally as it overrides the logon
locally user right and that administrators are members of users and everyone
groups. --- Steve

Everything (just about) works fine. This machine is a member of our only
domain and can access the domain shares. The full domain can be browsed
in
"My Network Places".
The problem is that this is the only machine on the network that cannot
see
the domain when you try to share a folder and go to:
Share Permissions > Add > Locations
Here, other machines see the local machine (and all created accounts on
it)
plus the domain server (and all accounts on that). But, this one only
sees
the local machine and NOT the domain.
Ultimately I would like to share files with a few, specific domain users,
which is why I need this.
If it helps, I think I broke this functionality myself because a few days
ago I was trying to remove domain users from being able to log on locally
to
this workstation. Which reminds me.. How would I do that? I want only a
few, specific domain users to be able to log on to the domain on this
specific machine. Is that possible? If so, how would I set that up?
Thanks!
