Host--R1----Ethernet-----R2
                                 / \
                              FR FR
                            / \
                          R5 R6
                           | |
                           |--Ethernet---|
                                   |
                              Server

R2 is a Border Peer for Group 10. R5 and R6 are part of group 10. R5 and R6
have promiscuous setup on their local peer statements and they each have one
remote-peer statement to R2

R2 is also setup with promiscuous on it's local peer statement with only one
remote peer statement to R1.

R1 is a border peer of Group 1 and is the only router in the group. It too has
promiscuous set on the local peer statement with only 1 remote peer to R2.

The host on the Ethernet segment from R1 tries to browse to the server sitting
on the segment shared by R5 and R6 connects successfully. I can browse and
download files.

What I am questioning or trying to understand is why the Server NetBIOS name
is not in R1's remote reachability cache. It shows up in R2's cache but not
R1.

Any ideas or insights on this?

TIA
