Re: [Networker] URGENT cannot recover wins.mdb

You should inform your Windows administrator that it is the responsibility
of the Windows Administrator to backup the WINS database. The information is
available from Microsoft:  Q201068 How to Set Up Disaster Recovery for a
Critical WINS Server.
This article is valid for Windows NT 4 but there are similar articles for
Windows 2000.

Subject: [Networker] URGENT cannot recover wins.mdb


We've lost our WINS.MDB file on our NT 4 server. I'm unable to find any
version of it (half year browse and retention), although I'm saving C:\\
everyday incr, monthly full.

I've searched with: networker user, recover -s <server>, nsrinfo <client> |
grep -i wins.mdb. Some directories included in C:\winnt\system32\wins
do appear, and with their contents, but there are no files in
C:\winnt\system32\wins. What is happening? I've also checked local
directives and
they are untouched.

Client version: 6.1.Build.186
Server version: 6.1.2.Build.340 on Solaris 2.6.

Thanks in advance (Once again I'm unable to search the list's archives).
