-------------------------------------------------------Neither one had this 
dependency.
Exch 2000 runs only on Win2K and Win2K3.
Both of these OS prefer DNS to WINS for name resolution and if your
network structure provides good DNS services, WINS is a non-issue for
Exchange 2K+.

-------------------------------------------------------Hi Jim,

Looks like your post never made it to the Active Dir list. If I recall 
Exchange 2000 clustered still had dependencies on Wins, and I was told
at a 
Microsoft Technet event that Exchange 2003 clustered no longer had this 
requirement, until I saw the  Microsoft article that I pointed out 
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;837391 .

Jose
