I have two routers on one network. I have two scopes set for our domain. That's working great. The routers have different subnets.
One being 255.255.255.0 the other 255.255.255.192. Is it possible for computers on each subnet to be able to see the other subnet in the network neighborhood?

computers are using broadcast to announce they are online. But computers on other subnet will never receive theses messages. Then the only way is to set the "Gateway" (the one with 2 NIC/subnet) as Master LM. All computer must have tcpip protocol. (i didn't tested it yet)

Create a static route to the other subnet on each router.

In order for the computer to see each other you have to setup naming services on both sides of the network. put a wins server and replicate back and forth-
