Hi,

Under "TCP/IP properties" > "WINS Address" there is the check-box "Enable DNS for Windows Name Resolution".

This has become unset. (It should be ticked - it isn't).

If I change this, I get two dialogs telling me that there is no WINS address for my adapter and then an invitation to reboot the server. So, I can't have unset this myself without noticing! ! !

Is there any other way that might have become unset? Other than hacking the resgistry?

Thanks - DaPi
