Looking at each of our 3 WINS servers, the Total Queries Received indicates that about 40 to 60 percent of them fail. Some users occassionally fail to see the profile server in our Citrix environment. What exactly does the failing inidcate?

Total Queries Received are the number of name query request messages received by this WINS server. "Successful" indicates how many names were successfully matched in the database, and "Failed" indicates how many names this WINS server could not resolve.
If you use DHCP make sure the scope or global options 044 and 048 are set properly. If not you have to configure all network clients and servers to register with the WINS servers and that they use h-node.
Also check that the WINS servers are replicating their databases.
