After informing Corporate that our WINS configuration is less than optimal, they have told me I get to fix it (ok I kind of volunteered :-). Hey it's just 1700 users to break....
"PING SERVER1" from a Win2K client (on a different subnet) is successful. I have no HOSTS nor LMHOST entries, and "NBTSTAT -a SERVER1" fails. This means WINS or DNS is resolving the name, correct? If so, can I find out which system is resolving it by turning off DNS for Windows name resolution and pinging by name again? If my PC is currently a DHCP client do I need to give myself a static IP or DHCP reservation to be able to turn off DNS for Windows name resolution?
