Does WINS server listen on all addresses assigned to the box, or only the
primary?

I have a server that for the most part, has been obsoleted EXCEPT it is
currently a WINS server - lets say the address is 10.10.10.1

I have a full production box, 10.10.10.2, that can take the WINS functions -
if I install the WINS server component, replicate the DB over, turn off the
10.10.10.1 box, and add 10.10.10.1 as a secondary address to the .2
machine - will everything work - or will WINS only listen on the primary (.1
in this example)?

Thanks.

I've done this several times and it works just fine.
