SYMPTOMS
When you shut down a backup domain controller that communicates with a Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) server over a wide area network (WAN), the domain<1C> name may sometimes enter a conflicting state. This behavior may occur if you run Windows NT 4.0-based domain controllers in a WAN environment that uses central WINS servers. When this problem occurs, the following information is logged on the backup domain controllers:

Event Type: Error

Event Source: NetBT

Event Category: None

Event ID: 4320

Date: 11.10.2001

Time: 12:42:17

User: N/A

Computer: N0001009

Description:

Another machine has sent a name release message to this machine probably because a duplicate name has been detected on the TCP network. The IP address of the node that sent the message is in the data. Use nbtstat -n in a command window to see which name is in the Conflict state.

Data:

0000: 00040000 00540001 00000000 c00010e0

0010: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000

0020: 00000000 00000000 0168fc82



CAUSE
The server incorrectly determines that the name is in conflict when it receives the name-release message from WINS because the server does not check the name type.
