Hi,
best way would be to set up a WINS server (in addition to the routing, but
it seems that the routing is OK since you could attach to the other NTs
via their IP address). A WINS server is for the SMB network what DNS is
for the IP network (translate name<->address). This will certainly speed
up the browsing on your network ...
Schlomo
PS: Incidentially Samba makes a good WINS server ...
Sincerely,
Schlomo Schapiro
