If using Win9x/WinME clients, make sure workgroup name=domain name in the
network control panel.

Subject: End of My Rope with WINS
NT4 Network. I have two buildings, each on their own network connected by
fiber. Pinging with ip address and netbios name between networks is no
problem and searching for computers using netbios names works too. There is
a WINS server on each network configured as push and pull partners of each
other. Each WINS server is its own Primary and Secondary. Browsing with
Network Neighborhood is intermittent. Sometimes Network A sees Network B,
sometimes it can't (and vice versa). I've never had simultaneous browsing. I
have never gotten a WINS error in the event viewer. I do get successful
push/pull entries.
All clients and other domain controllers are set up using their local wins
server as primary and the remote wins server as secondary. Is this OK?
All the required entries seem to be there [1C], [1Eh], [OOh], etc...
I don't know what else to check for, and am close to deleting both databases
and starting over.
Any advice?
Scott
