Unfortunately, even upgrading to an entirely Windows 2000 network, you will probably find that you will still need a WINS server unless your network is flat. -----Original Message----- From: Kitson Jesse E (OIS) [mailto:Jesse.Kitson@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2002 10:00 AM To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [windows2000] Re: OT: (sort of) Adding NT4.0WS to 2000 domain Thanks Ray. We're doing everything you said except WINS. Our Network gurus don't = like it. Maybe a good reason to upgrade these boxes to at least 2000. Thanks again Jesse E.

I ~~~~~~think~~~~~~ you need to be running WINS. Okay, maybe just the browser service on the NT machines actually. But you know that you have to join the old style netbios name of the domain, right? Like, not mydomain.com, but MYDOMAIN.
