Windows 2k/XP based VPN Question

I have a network setup such that there is a VPN over ADSL with two main networks on different domains. One has the IP range 192.168.0.* and the other 192.168.1.*

What I need is for the computers on both networks to be able to see eachother in the Network Neighbourhood. I have tried doing this by modifying the lmhosts file and it doesn't seem to work. After modifying the file I can use the start/find menu to find a computer listed there, but I cannot simply open network neighbourhood and see it.

Any ideas on how this is done? I have an NT server at each end.

Thanks
 
Network Neighborhood is based on the NETBUI protocol, not TCP/IP, so without NETBUI installed it won't work.

Yeah, that's a b!tch.

Is there are workaround for that? Is it possible to use the full AD domain name?
 
I don't have NetBEUI installed on a single computer within the network, however I can see the computers locally in Network Neighbourhood. I don't think that is correct.
