Netbios will not pass a router.  The only way to allow this type of browsing 
is to use a WINS Server.  There is a way to set up either a push or pull 
mechanism to share info between different netbios 'zones'. (although it's 
been a few years since I had no other choice than windows networking and 
don't remember the specifics)
