Suggestion: Anything you type in the workgroup name field on a legacy workstation will create a 1Eh record
Check the WINS database for matching names As far as the goofy characters NetBIOS only understand certain characters maybe those are characters that it doesn't know -------------------------------- Rob Weatherly -------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: Lum, David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 10, 2003 4:18 PM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: Odd domain names and browsing You guys tired of me yet? While working on WINS and browsing items, I came across domain names that seem invalid while browsing via Network Neighborhood. I copied a screenshot here: http://www.datsuns.com/geekage/weird_domains.gif Any idea why we might have listings like that? How would they get to be like that? UNIX boxes would report nonstandard characters, would they? They have been around for some time (at least a couple years) and it seems there are more now than a year or two ago.
