Default Is this working properly?


I have a domain, and I have a domain computer running WinSrv2008R2 being
used as a dev workstation. On it, I set up a Hyper-V virtual machine
that is NOT on the domain, but in a WORKGROUP. Everything works fine,
internet access etc. If I click on a domain server via the Network icon
it prompts for my domain user/password to connect.

But when I click on the network icon, I see all the non-XP domain
computers on the network - no domain XP computers show up.

1. Is this working correctly given it's a workgroup and not part of the
domain?

2. Computer Browser service is not running on the VM, is that why I
can't see the XP machines?

3. If I start Computer Browser service on the VM, is that advised?
Currently only DCs have the Computer Browser service running, and all
domain computers are visible on all domain computers.

Thanks!
