SYMPTOMS
After you view or edit the settings in the Replication Partners dialog box of WINS Manager, clicking OK may cause replication to start, even though it is not the scheduled time for replication to occur. This does not happen if you click Cancel or Close.



MORE INFORMATION
WINS replication should only occur when you click Replicate Now in the Replication Partners dialog box, or at the scheduled time specified in the Push and Pull properties.

This may occur if the Initial replication check box is selected in the WINS Server Configuration dialog box. Per the Help topic, this option causes the WINS server to replicate with partners on startup, and when replication options or partners are changed.

In this case, clicking OK causes the replication configuration dialog box to think that some changes may have been made and replication is triggered. Clicking Cancel avoids this.
