There are no WINS servers set on the BDC, and I don't believe WINS is
running anywhere. There is no WINS service on the PDC. The BDC is
using LMHOSTS. I can ping the PDC both by name and IP.

How is WINS? Can the BDC get name lookups to the PDC and the domain
name that way?

Subject: Roaming profiles issue
Good morning,
I'm having a roaming profile issue this morning on a (don't laugh)
Windows NT domain. A few of our legacy PCs login to the old NT domain
for their roaming profiles. When users login, they get an error that
their profile is not available.
There is a PDC and a DBC. Profiles are on the BDC. The PDC and BDC
can see each other, and I can browse the shares on both, but when I go
into the shares, I get an inaccessible error. From my laptop, which
is not part of the domain, I can open files on the PDC, but not on the
BDC. In the event viewer of the BDC I'm getting an Event ID:3096.
The Windows NT domain controller for this domain could not be located.
Any idea what might be wrong? We had a power outage last night, but
this is the only issue we're running into.
Thanks,
