Friends
There's nothing as nice as someone who shares, your laughter, your secrets, your wishes and cares, someone who's there through your good times and tears, who stays by your side as your friend through the years.

I could catch a rainbow I would do it just for you, And share with you its beauty On the days you're feeling blue
If I could build a mountain You could call your very own, A place to find serenity, A place to be alone
If I could take your troubles I would toss them in the sea, But all these things I'm finding Are impossible for me
I cannot build a mountain, Or catch a rainbow fair, But let me be what I know best, A friend who's always there
- Kahlil Gibran

The Gift Of Knowing You
There are gifts of many treasures For both the young and old, From the tiniest little trinkets To great boxes filled with gold.
But, put them all together And they could not stand in lieu, Of the greatest gift of all The gift of knowing you.
When your times are filled with troubles Sadness, grief, or even doubt, When all those things you planned on Just aren't turning out.
Just turn and look behind you From the place at which you stand, And look for me through the shadows And reach out for my hand.
I will lift from you your burden And cry for you your tears, Bear the pain of all your sorrows Though it may be for a thousand years.
For in the end I would be happy To have helped you start anew, It's a small price to pay For the gift of knowing you.

I am God. Today I will be handling all of your problems. Please remember that I do not need your help.
If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box. All situations will be resolved, but in My time, not yours
Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold onto it by worrying about it. Instead, focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now.
If you find yourself stuck in traffic; Don't despair. There are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.
Should you have a bad day at work; Think of the man who has been out of work for years
Should you despair over a relationship gone bad; Think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return
Should you grieve the passing of another weekend; Think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children
Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance; Think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.
Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror; Think of the cancer patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.
Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about, asking what is my purpose? Be thankful. There are those who didn't live long enough to get the opportunity.
Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness, ignorance, smallness or insecurities; Remember, things could be worse. You could be one of them
Should you decide to send this to a friend; Thank you, you may have touched their life in ways you will never know!

You remind me of a flower, Pretty, inside and outside. A reason why people smile everyday, A gift to all.
You remind me of chocolate, Luscious and sweet. Someone people can turn to in crisis, Loved by all.
You remind me of a teddy, Cute and huggable. Someone people feel comfortable with, Special to all.
You remind me of a balloon, Happy and bouncy. Someone people can have fun with, Enjoyed by all.
You remind me of a lot of things, But nothing can compare to the real person, A friend I can look up to, Cherished by me.

True Friend poem:
You're a true friend, that I want you to know, Our love for each other has helped us to grow. We've been through some tough times, but we've made it through, The only one I ever trusted was you.
Poems to a TRUE friend to show you are happy ....
If you're friendly and you know it, clap your hands. If you're friendly and you know it, clap your hands.
If you're friendly and you know it, and you really want to show it, If you're friendly and you know it, clap your hands!

CUTE Friendship saying :
No man or woman is worth your tears.
The only one who is, will never make you cry.
If you love someone, put their name in a circle, instead of a heart.
Hearts can break, but circles go on forever.
Everyone hears what you say. Friends listen to what you say.
Best friends listen to what you don't .
If all my friends were to jump off a bridge, I wouldn't jump with them. I'd be at the bottom to catch them.
Don't frown, because you never know who's falling in love with your smile !
It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone---but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
"If you judge people, you have no time to love them."- Mother Teresa
-----------------
GOD SPEAK TO ME...
The man whispered, "God, speak to me." And a meadowlark sang. But, the man did not hear.
|
Then the man yelled "God, speak to me." Thunder rolled across the sky. But, the man did not listen
|
|
The man looked around and said, "God, let me see you." And the stars shined brightly. But the man did not notice
|
|
And, the man shouted, "God, show me a miracle." And, a life was born. But the man did not know.
So, the man cried out in despair, "Touch me God, and let me know you are here." Whereupon, God reached down and touched the man. But, the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on.
|
So remember, don't miss out on a blessing because it isn't packaged the way that you expect. Take notice of the blessings around you. |

Friends Forever
Friends are friends forever together 'till the end.
You promised me that you would always be my friend.
One day something changed I'm not sure what it was.
I lost you on that day and the reason was because
it was a late dark night and we had a stupid fight.
And for some reason, I don't know why, we couldn't make it right.
We went our separate ways.
This went on for days and days.
I made new friends and you made yours,
but that hole in my heart could not be filled for that hole was only yours.
Times got really tough,
my road of life was, oh, so rough.
I needed friends, not the kind you see from day to day,
but the kind that will always and forever stay.
Memories were all I had
and just the thought of them made me sad.
I cried every night wondering how to make it right.
I wish you could erase that day and that fight.
Would you please forgive me? I don't know where to start.
It hurts me so bad to have this hole in my heart!
I don't want our friendship to totally end.
I need you! You are my best friend!
So can we make a promise to stay together 'till the end?
A vow to each other to ALWAYS be BEST FRIENDS?

~ FRIENDS ~
As we walk our path of life, We meet people everyday. Most are simply met by chance. But, some are sent our way.
These become special friends Whose bond we can't explain; The ones who understand us And share our joy and pain.
Their love contains no boundaries. So, even we are apart. Their presence enhances us With a warmth felt in the heart.
This love becomes a passageway, When even the miles disappear. And so, these friends, God sends our way, Remain forever near. Author Lisa Pelzer Vetter
-----------------
Friends will come and friends will go, The seasons change and it will show, I will age and so will you, But our friendship stays, strong and true.

A Friend's Greeting
I'd like to be the sort of friend that you have been to me; I'd like to be the help that you've been always glad to be;
I'd like to mean as much to you each minute of the day As you have meant, old friend of mine, to me along the way.
I'd like to do the big things and the splendid things for you, To brush the gray from out your skies and leave them only blue;
I'd like to say the kindly things that I so oft have heard, And feel that I could rouse your soul the way that mine you've stirred.
I'd like to give you back the joy that you have given me, Yet that were wishing you a need I hope will never be;
I'd like to make you feel as rich as I, who travel on Undaunted in the darkest hours with you to lean upon.
I'm wishing at this time that I could but repay A portion of the gladness that you've strewn along my way;
And could I have one wish this year, this only would it be: I'd like to be the sort of friend that you have been to me.

- Kahlil Gibran Too True, Too Often
Too often we don't realize What we have until it is gone Too often we wait too late to say "I'm sorry - I was wrong."
Sometimes it seems we hurt the ones We hold dearest to our hearts And we allow foolish things To tear our lives apart.
Far too many times we let Unimportant things into our minds And then it's usually too late To see what made us blind.
So be sure that you let people know How much they mean to you Take that time to say the words Before your time is through.
Be sure that you appreciate Everything you've got And be thankful for the little things in life that mean a lot.

Allow Your Own Inner Light to Guide You
There comes a time when you must stand alone.
You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your own dreams.
You must be willing to make sacrifices.
You must be capable of changing and rearranging your priorities so that your final goal can be achieved.
Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged.
There are times when you must take a few extra chances and create your own realities.
Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better.
Be confident enough that you won't settle for a compromise just to get by.
Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop, and find your true sense of purpose in this life.
Don't stand in someone else's shadow when it's your sunlight that should lead the way.
-----------------
Work hard at what you like to do and try to overcome all obstacles
Laugh at your mistakes and praise yourself for learning from them
Pick some flowers and appreciate the beauty of nature
Say hello to strangers and enjoy the people you know
Don't be afraid to show your emotions laughing and crying make you feel better
Love your friends and family with your entire being they are the most important part of your life
Feel the calmness on a quiet sunny day
Find a rainbow and live your world of dreams always remember life is better than
----------------
BE THANKFUL
Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire. If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something, for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times. During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations, because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for your mistakes. They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary, because it means you've made a difference.
It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles, and they can become your blessings
--------------------------------
Appreciating Our Past
It is easy to be negative about past mistakes and unhappiness. But it is much more healing to look at ourselves and our past in the light of experience, acceptance, and growth.
Our past is a series of lessons that advance us to higher levels of living and loving. The relationships we entered, stayed in, or ended taught us necessary lessons.
Some of us have emerged from the most painful circumstances with strong insights about who we are and what we want. Our mistakes? Necessary. Our frustrations, failures, and sometimes stumbling attempts at growth and progress? Necessary too. Each step of the way, we learned. We went through exactly the experiences we need to, to become who we are today. Each step of the way, we progressed. Is our past a mistake? No. The only mistake we can make is mistaking that for the truth.
Today, God, help me let go of negative thoughts I may be harboring about my past circumstances or relationships. I can accept, with gratitude, all that has brought me to today.
------------------------
A Lesson in Life
Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, if they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere.
If someone hurts you, betrays you , or breaks you heart, forgive them. For they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to.
If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.
Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.
Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you either.
You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live
-------------------
Friendship is like the breeze, You can't hold it, Smell it, Taste it, Or know when it's coming, But you can always feel it, And you'll always know it's there, It may come and then go, But you can know it'll always be back.
Why God Made Friends
God made the world with a heart full of love, Then He looked down from Heaven above,
And saw that we all need a helping hand, Someone to share with, who'll understand.
He made special people to see us through The glad times and the sad times, too;
A person on whom we can always depend, Someone we can call a friend.
God made friends so we'll carry a part Of His perfect love in all our hearts.
You may not have ever seen me But you know that I am here. You can feel me in your heart As you enter each new day.
I will always be there for you I am your friend.
Someone to share the good times As well as the bad. I make no judgments by what you say I just listen with my heart and Hope to be of help in anyway I can.
I will be there for you now and forever And always please remember I am your friend!

You are friendly, kind and caring Sensitive, loyal and understanding Humorous, fun, secure and true Always there... yes that's you.

Standing by, All the way. Here to help you through your day.
Holding you up, When you are weak, Helping you find what it is you seek.
Catching your tears, When you cry. Pulling you through when the tide is high.

Always Remember Poem
Always remember to forget The things that made you sad But never forget to remember The things that made you glad.
Always remember to forget The friends that proved untrue. But don't forget to remember Those that have stuck by you.
Always remember to forget The troubles that have passed away. But never forget to remember The blessings that come each day.
- Author Unknown
I'll Be Here I cannot ease your aching heart, Nor take your pain away; But let me stay and take your hand And walk with you today.
I'll listen when you need to talk, I'll wipe away your tears; I'll share your worries when they come, I'll help you face your fears.
I'm here and I will stand by you, On each hill you have to climb; So take my hand, let's face the world... And live just one day at a time.
You're not alone, for I'm still here, I'll go that extra mile; And when your grief is easier, I'll help you learn to smile!

The Friend Who Just Stands By
When troubles come your soul to try, You love the friend who just stands by. Perhaps there's nothing she can do, The thing is strictly up to you.
For there are troubles all your own, And paths the soul must tread alone. Times when love can't smooth the road, Nor friendship lift the heavy load.
But just to feel you have a friend, Who will stand by until the end. Whose sympathy through all endures, Whose warm handclasp is always yours.
It helps somehow to pull you through, Although there's nothing she can do. And so with fervent heart we cry, God Bless the friend who just stands by.
Pass this onto all such friends...

What Is A Friend?
A friend is somebody Who knows you and likes you Exactly the way that you are.
Someone who's special And so close in thought That no distance can ever seem far.
A friend understands you Without any words, Stands by you When nothing goes right.
And willingly talks Over problems with you Till they somehow Just vanish from sight.
And whether you're neighbors Or live miles apart, A word from a friend gives a lift To your heart and spirit.
That shows you once more Why friendship is life's dearest gift!

My Friend
My Friend when I think of you. I think of all that we've been through. All the times we argue and fight, I know deep inside that it isn't right. I, then feel bad and alot of pain. It feels like I've fallen from the sky like the rain. I love you dear friend with all of my heart. But now that you're gone I've fallen apart. I'm getting better as the days go by. I wish sometimes this was all a big lie. I pray to you every night. It's like you're my fire, a burning light. My dear friend, I miss you alot. I still wonder why you were put in that spot. I know you're in a place much better than here. Watching and helping me with all of my fear. Our friendship my dear friend, we will have to the end. Friends til the end is what we will be. Someday we'll be together, together you and me.
~~ Your Kind of Friendship ~~
It takes more than caring To be a real friend; The nature of friendship; Requires a blend Of warmest compassion And love deep and true To reach and to comfort The way that you do. Because I can see That your kind of friendship Is priceless to me.

Special Friend Poems "Portrait of a Friend"
I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts, or fears. But I can listen to you, and together we will search for answers.
I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain, nor the future with its untold stories. But I can be there now when you need me to care.
I can't keep your feet from stumbling. I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.
Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine; Yet I can share in your laughter.
Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge; I can only support you, encourage you, and help you when you ask.
I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship, from your values, from me. I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you.
I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you, But I can give you the room to change, room to grow, room to be yourself.
I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting, But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces and put them back in place.
I can't tell you who you are. I can only love you and be your friend. --Unknown
Why GOD Gave Us Friends
GOD knew that everyone needs Companionship and cheer, He knew that people need someone Whose thoughts are always near.
He knew they need someone kind To lend a helping hand. Someone to gladly take the time To care and understand.
GOD knew that we all need someone To share each happy day, To be a source of courage When troubles come our way.
Someone to be true to us, Whether near or far apart. Someone whose love we'll always Hold and treasure in our hearts.
That's Why GOD Gave Us Friends!
Best Friend Quotes Poems :

Losing Best Friend Poems :
SOME LIKE WOODEN SHIP, SOME LIKE SILVER SHIP.
SOME LIKE GOLD SHIP, BUT I ONLY LIKE YOUR FRIENDSHIP.
PLEASE DON'T GO AWAY, IN THE STORM OF LIFE, YOU HAVE BEEN MY SHIP
A FRIEND FROM ABOVE....
I prayed for you before we met, Not knowing who you'd be. I asked the Lord to send a friend. One chosen just for me.
I asked that they'd be Godly, With wisdom of His ways. A friend to help and guide me I the troubles of these days. So often in life, we need someone To listen while we talk. Someone who will not condemn or judge, But encourage us as we walk. The narrow road we choose to follow May sometimes make us stumble. But to have a friend to catch our fall, Teaches us to be humble.
When I asked the Lord to send a friend, Though many came and went. He gave much more than I ever asked, For you are the friend He sent.
What You Are To Me A quick glance, a tender smile I am caught in a spell A gentle touch, a warm embrace I know that all to well A soft voice, an unspoken love Across the way I see A kind face, an inner beauty That's what you are to me Friends
A friend is someone we turn to when our spirits need a lift. A friend is someone we treasure for our friendship is a gift. A friend is someone who fills our lives with beauty, joy, and grace. And makes the whole world we live in a better and happier place.

Friendship poems & poetry :
A friend is like a flower, a rose to be exact, Or maybe like a brand new gate that never comes unlatched. A friend is like an owl, both beautiful and wise. Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost, whose spirit never dies. A friend is like a heart that goes strong until the end. Where would we be in this world if we didn't have a friend. - By Emma Guest
----------------------------------------
Forever Friends you're my friend and that is true, but the gift was given from me to you. We went thru moments that were good and bad, even moments that were happy and sad. You supported me when I was in tears, we stuck together when we were in fear, its really sad that it had to be this way, but it has reached its very last day. Miles away can't keep us apart, 'cause you'll always be in my heart.
Make new friends but keep the old one is sliver and the other gold!

~STARTED AS FRIENDS~
We started out as friends Alike in so many ways Friendship is so important you know That really is the very first phase
Because a friend is someone you want to be with Laugh and share Or sometimes not say a word and quietly sit side by side just to be there
No pressure, no strings You're great friends That's how a good solid relationship begins
Built on trust and understanding Liking one another a lot Taking time to know who we are Building a solid foundation without having a weak spot
It's this foundation that will hold us together It won't crumble down when we hit stormy weather
To many people today don't start out right They never started with friendship Day after day they just fight
Thinking they loved one another but they were never true friends And before they even got started their relationship ends
Friendship.... It was a good place to start But now...... It is so much more We hold each other's heart
My friend is the one I love Was our meeting by chance or fate I really don't know But I believe.... I have found my Soul Mate

If you haven't already done so, one of the main things that you should do is configure your network to run TCP/IP. Although setting up TCP/IP is almost a necessity these days, without the proper planning it can drastically slow your network because of the broadcast traffic generated through the process of resolving computer names to IP addresses. Fortunately, Microsoft provides the WINS service to automate the name resolution process without the excessive broadcasts. In this article, we'll discuss the reasons why you should implement a WINS server. We'll also show you how to install and configure the WINS services.

Why Use WINS? There are two primary advantages to using the WINS service. First, before two NetBIOS-based hosts can communicate over a TCP/IP network, the NetBIOS names must be resolved to IP addresses. As we mentioned earlier, to resolve NetBIOS names without a WINS server, TCP/IP must rely on broadcast traffic. This extra broadcast traffic can cause network congestion. With a WINS server online, when a computer wants to communicate with another computer, a name query is sent directly to the WINS server. The WINS server returns the destination computer's IP address to the original computer without the need for broadcast traffic.
The second reason for using WINS is that it's dynamic. As computers attach to and detach from the network, the WINS databases are updated automatically. This means that you don't have to create a static LMHOST file that the computers can read to determine IP addresses.
Top of page What About Microsoft Windows 2000 Compatibility? Although Microsoft Windows 2000-based clients will be able to use a WINS server, they won't require it. Microsoft Windows 2000 will replace WINS with a new service called Dynamic DNS. Dynamic DNS will dynamically resolve host names and NetBIOS names. However, Dynamic DNS will require you to run a DHCP server. Therefore, if you don't have a DHCP server, you must continue to use WINS until you add one to your network.
Top of page How Does WINS Work? Okay, so WINS resolves NetBIOS names to IP addresses, but just knowing that simple fact isn't really enough. It's important to understand how WINS works. If you ever have problems with name resolution, you'll have a much easier time fixing the problem if you understand what's really going on.
When a WINS client comes on line, it already knows about the WINS server, because the WINS server's IP address is configured within the client's TCP/IP configuration, as shown in Figure A. Once the client knows the location of a WINS server, it registers its NetBIOS name and IP address with the WINS server.
Figure A: Each client's TCP/IP configuration points to a WINS server. See full-sized image.
Now, suppose that the client issues a NetBIOS style command, such as NET USE Z: \\TALAINIA\C$. Rather than sending a broadcast to the entire network that's aimed at finding the server TALAINIA, the client sends the request directly to the WINS server. Since the server TALAINIA is also NetBIOS-based, it has already registered its name and IP address with the WINS server when it first came on line. When the WINS server receives the request, it queries its database for the name TALAINIA. When it finds the entry, it returns the associated IP address directly to the client that requested it.
Although this process sounds simple, there are many factors that can complicate things. For example, you may be wondering what happens if a computer tries to register a NetBIOS name that's already in use.
Keep in mind that the WINS server handles requests dynamically. The very nature of a dynamic database suggests that each computer's use of a given NetBIOS name is temporary. For example, when a client comes on line, it registers its NetBIOS name with a WINS server. When that computer is shut down, it sends another message to the WINS server indicating that the name is no longer in use. This makes it possible for another computer to use that name.
Now, suppose a computer comes on line and tries to register a NetBIOS name that's currently registered. If a duplicate name is found, the WINS server sends a challenge to the IP address of the computer that originally registered the name. If there's no response, the challenge will be sent a total of three times. If the registered owner is multihomed, the challenge will be sent to each IP address that the computer registered. If the current owner responds to the challenge, the WINS server will deny the client use of the name. Otherwise, WINS will revoke ownership of the name from the currently registered computer and grant it to the new computer.
Although WINS may sound like a great way to reduce broadcast traffic, you may be wondering what will happen to your network if the WINS server drops offline. Fortunately, your network won't come to a grinding halt. As you can see in Figure A, each WINS client can be configured to use a backup WINS server. If neither WINS server is available, the clients will begin using broadcasts to resolve name information until a WINS server becomes available.
Top of page Installing WINS Before you begin implementing a WINS server, it's important to know how many WINS servers you'll need. First, keep in mind that WINS servers communicate through UDP packets. Therefore, WINS communications are routable. This means you won't need a separate WINS server for each segment of your network.
Each WINS server can handle about 4,500 name queries per minute. However, you can expect about a 25 percent increase in performance for each extra processor that you add to a WINS server. If you have appropriate hardware, Microsoft states that a WINS server and a backup WINS server working together can service at least 10,000 WINS clients. The WINS service must run on a Microsoft Windows NT Server with a static IP address.
To install the WINS service, first select a server with a static IP address and open Control Panel. Next, double-click on Control Panel's Network icon. When you see the Network properties sheet, click the Services tab. Then, click Add to open the Select Network Services dialog box. Next, select the Microsoft Windows Internet Name Service from the Network Service window and click OK.
At this point, Microsoft Windows NT will ask for the location of your Microsoft Windows NT Server CD. Specify the path to your installation files and click the Continue button. When Microsoft Windows NT copies the necessary files, click OK to close the Network properties sheet. Microsoft Windows NT will then update the necessary bindings and ask you to reboot the server. When the server reboots, you can configure your clients and begin using the WINS service.
Top of page Replicating WINS Databases The WINS model we've given you works great for small to mid-sized networks. However, you may be wondering what would happen if you wanted to use WINS on a really large network. For example, suppose that you had a network in New York and a network in Los Angeles. Now suppose that both networks had their own WINS and backup WINS servers. The networks would work great as long as no one needed to perform any sort of NetBIOS communication between the two networks.
As you may recall, WINS traffic is routable. The reason that NetBIOS communication between the two networks wouldn't work is that the two networks have no knowledge of each other. All of the PCs in New York are registering with WINS servers in New York. Likewise, computers in Los Angeles are registering with WINS servers in Los Angeles. If a computer in New York wanted to communicate with a computer in Los Angeles, it would check the WINS database for the computer name. Since the computers in Los Angeles aren't registered in the database, communications would fail.
The solution to this problem is to make the two networks know about each other. This is done through database replication. This means that the WINS servers in each location can exchange information with each other.
Replication works through push and pull partners. A push partner tells the pull partner that the database has changed. The pull partner then requests all the changes from the push partner. A WINS server can be configured as both a push and a pull server. Therefore, it's possible for two servers to replicate any change that happens on one server to the other server. If the servers in New York and Los Angeles that we used in our earlier example were configured as push and pull partners, both WINS servers would have knowledge of WINS clients at both locations. You can configure replication by selecting the Replication Partners command from WINS Manager's Server menu.
Top of page WINS Maintenance If WINS ever seems to be having trouble with a specific database entry, it's sometimes helpful to look at the actual database contents. To do so, open an MS-DOS Prompt window and run the following command (this command is case sensitive):
nbtstat –R
Doing so purges the name cache. Next, go to the Start menu and select Programs | Administrative Tools | WINS Manager. When you do, you'll see WINS Manager. Now, select the Show Database command from WINS Manager's Mappings menu. When you do, you'll see the WINS database's contents, as shown in Figure B.
Figure B: You can use WINS Manager to view the contents of the WINS database. See full-sized image.
If you need to view specific entries, WINS Manager has a number of ways for doing so. For example, you could select the Show Only Mappings From Selected Owner option. Doing so would display database records from only the server that you've selected. You can also set the sort order to sort the database by items such as computer names or IP address. Finally, you can click the Set Filter button to search for specific information.
When you're looking at the contents of the database, each line begins with an icon. If the icon is a picture of a computer, it indicates that the entry is a unique name. If the icon shows three computers overlapping, it indicates that the computer is multihomed.
You may have also noticed the A and S columns. If there's a check in the A column, it indicates an active connection from a computer that acquired its IP address from a DHCP server. If there's a dash in the A column, it means that the connection is no longer active and will soon be removed from the database. A checkmark in the S column indicates a static IP address.
Top of page Backups As with any other database, you need to regularly back up the WINS database. What makes backing up the WINS database nice, though, is that with the exception of the first backup, backups happen automatically.
To back up the WINS database, select the Back Up Database command from WINS Manager's Mappings menu. Next, specify a location for the backup files and click OK. WINS will then automatically back up its database every 24 hours.
Should the WINS database become corrupted, simply stop and restart the WINS service. If WINS detects the corruption, it will automatically restore the most recent backup. If WINS doesn't detect the corruption, you can force a restore by selecting the Restore Database command from WINS Manager's Mappings menu.
Although database backups are automatic, it's not a bad idea to occasionally back up the WINS section of the registry. To do so, open the Registry Editor and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SYSTEM | CURRENTCONTROLSET | SERVICES | WINS. Next, select the Save Key command from the Registry menu. In the Save Key dialog box, specify the path that you're using for WINS backup files.
Top of page When the WINS Database Gets Too Large WINS is designed to compact its databases automatically when they become too large. However, if you think that the databases are becoming too large, you can compact them manually. To do so, open an MS-DOS Prompt window and issue the following commands:
NET STOP WINS JETPACK WINS.MDB TEMP.MDB NET START WINS
These commands stop the WINS service and copy the WINS database to a file called TEMP.MDB, then the TEMP.MDB file is compacted. Once the file has been compacted successfully, it's copied to WINS.MDB and the temp file is deleted. Finally, the WINS service is restarted.
Top of page Conclusion In this article, we've explained why you need at least one WINS server if you plan to use TCP/IP. We then went on to explain how to install the WINS service, and how to perform routine maintenance on the WINS database.
