In a network
w2k-router-w2k
where WINS server is located?

Where does it come from?
Installed on each client during IP installation or otherwise?

How do I know what WINS server address to use in the WINS tab of TCP/IP
properties?
 
Thanks, Rob

In the newtork configuration
w2k-router-w2k
where should WINS be installed on?
 
There is no correct answer. It could be installed on either or both w2k
servers or somewhere else on your network.

I don't have "else" in my network and both machines are w2k pro.
From your next door message I understand that I do not WINS at all

The reason I am digging into this is I keep having errors like "network name
is no longer available" or "unexpected network error" or printer is not
accessable, and I am trying to see what is wrong with my settings
