FYI: I tried the below and *did* see the same (odd) behaviour - WINS entries 'flipped'.
I'm not sure if perhaps the WINS client flips to another WINS server if the server does not respond within n msec?? neil -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kevin Taco Sent: 16 June 2005 21:04 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Unexpected WINS registering behavior More info: I setup a test lab: 1 Windows 2003 Sp1. WINS installed 1 Windows 2003 Sp1. WINS installed 1 XP sp2 client Generic installs of WINS on each server. Setup Push/Pull replication between them. No other server configs done. Client points to the servers ip's for WINS. All boxes are on the same subnet on the same isolated switch. Doing a nbtstat -RR exibits the same behavior. It's swaps the WINS servers each time. Can someone else try: ipconfig /all = note the WINS order nbtstat -RR ipconfig /all = see if the WINS order changed I'm stumped... -alex On Thu, 16 Jun 2005 08:41:57 -0700, "Kevin Taco" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: > We have two WINS servers and one DHCP server.
