SYMPTOMS

Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) records may not replicate between WINS servers that are running Windows Server 2003. Therefore, applications that use WINS for name resolution may not work correctly.

When this problem occurs, the following events are logged in the System log on one or more of the WINS servers:

Event 4102 Event Type: Error
Event Source: Wins
Event Category: None
Event ID: 4102
Date: 4/18/2006
Time: 11:20:02 AM
User: N/A
Computer: ComputerName
Description: The connection was aborted by the remote WINS. Remote WINS may not be configured to replicate with the server.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
Data: 0000: 0000031c e0000008

Event 4243 Event Type: Error
Event Source: Wins
Event Category: None
Event ID: 4243
Date: 4/18/2006
