Well, here's another thing. I played around with my computer. I set my
WINS server to be what it should be, and saw an incomplete list. Then I
started WINS on another server that has WINS installed, but not normally
running. I rebooted, and saw the same list. Then I removed my WINS
server entry altogether, rebooted my machine, started my browser
service, and ran a net view. I still saw the same thing. So, when my
computer was totally responsible for getting its own list and not
looking to a WINS server, it still saw the same thing. But what's even
more confusing is that I killed the WINS database on our WINS server
this morning (since our network admin wasn't around <g>) and restarted
the service so that a fresh new database would be created. All the damn
computers on the network showed up in the database. So, all the
computers are definitely registering themselves with the WINS server. I
keep coming back to the router suspicion. But, man, I just don't know
about these things. I shouldn't even be concerning myself with this. I
have some things I have to do, like write some scripts and stuff, that
depend on a complete computer list, so until this is figured out, I
can't do these things. I guess that's why I care. Oh well, it's a
three day weekend!
