Notes

  • To open WINS, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click WINS.

  • When Log detailed events to Windows event log is checked, WINS logs additional detailed information to the system event log, which can be viewed by using Event Viewer. Because this feature can degrade system performance when enabled, it is turned off by default.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
