I've a few PC's in my LAB at university. upon startup, an ip address
is assigned to each PC by one of the DHCP servers in the network.
currently, two dhcp servers are simultaneously active in the network
and assign IP addresses as :
Server 1:
Range: 192.168.241.*
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.241.1

Server 2:
Range: 192.168.242.*
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.242.1

so, some of my pcs fall into the subnet1 and others fall into subnet2.

I want to setup a workgroup of my PCs so that pcs from both subnets be
accessible from each other by their netbios names. currently I can
only browse members of the same subnet by their name and also I can
reach the members of the other subnet by their IP address.

I want to do this in my LAB and I cannot config the dhcp servers or
any other parts of the network outside my room!


Any comments ?
