Title: RE: Network browsing issue

We had changed our Wins servers about two months ago, and just found out that one of our former Wins servers was still setup as a push pull partner.

 

I removed that and set it properly to the current Wins servers.

 

There were errors in the Event logs about that particular Wins server not being replicated to.

 

I guess I'm wondering how long it takes for a Wins database to repair itself?  It's been since last week Thursday that we discovered the push pull problem.  There are no more WIns errors in the logs, shouldn't the database have repaired itself by now.

 

No DNS changes were made.  All workstations pull the appropriate Wins servers from DHCP.

Just in the last couple of days we are having dramatic browsing slowdowns on
out NT4 network.

Whenevery I try adding printers or PC's to the domain, it takes several
minutes for the browse list to appear.  It never used to be that way.  Used
to be instantaneous.

I've already used Browser monitor to make sure the Master browser is the
corrrect one.  The only protocol configured on any of our workstations is
TCP/IP.

Anyone know what I can look for to troubleshoot this?

Thanks
