WINS Error 4202

[Guest Tonyl]

We curretnly keep getting the error below our Domain Controller is trying to

replicate with a WINS server that has been removed from the system around 5

yrs ago. We have looked in the WINS database and that IP address is being

Used by another machine, not running WINS we have also cheked WINS config and

the registry for any links with the IP address and found none. Was after

other ideas on why this would be happening and how to stop it

 

thanks

If the WINS can't communicate, you will receive Event ID 4202. Use arp command to find another computer. Or these search results may help,
