I have just came upon the ip address management console on server 2003, now I normally assign wins statistically on client machines (I am new on the job) yet I see that here I can add the WINS, now will these wins be published to the clients if I set the clients on auto acquire settings, if so then that means the same goes for dns. If you have any experience with this please share your knowledge with me.
Another thing we have over 10 wins and i wonder if this setting on the server will actually allow the clients to rotate amongst the specified wins till they find one that's online.

Try the "Questions" forum; the "Discussion" forum is for matters of general discussion, not specific problems in search of a solution.

Post problems such as this to the "Question" forum, rather than the "Discussion" forum. There are those who specifically seek out problems in need of a solution, and that's where they go to look for such.

Additionally there are the benefits that:

1) The "Questions" forum provides for your feedback, by way of your being able to mark "helpful" responses as such. This does not necessarily mean that a given response contained the complete solution to your problem, but only that it served to guide you toward it. This is intended to serve as an aid to those who may in the future have a problem similar to yours, so that they might have a ready source of reference available, thereby perhaps obviating the need for them to repeat questions previously asked and answered.

2) The revised TR makes it quite difficult to find both "Discussions" and "Questions" that have not had a fairly recent post, owing to some functions comingling them in the listings. By keeping each type in their respective forums, it is easier for all to find what they are looking for.
