event id:4102, source:wins, type:error, category:none.
"connection was aborted by the remote wins".
I am trying to resolve this issue, I get this message about every hour. PDC and BDC are configured as WINS servers, my synchs are working correctly- this is the only problem I have noticed in event viewer. I am running the proper services on both servers. Any ideas?

I seen is before when replication (Push - Pull) is not set just right....

(From MS Technet..)

SYMPTOM

The following event appears in the Windows NT system log:

Event ID: 4102

Description: The connection was aborted by the remote client.

CAUSE

WINS replication is not configured properly.

Most likely your WINS server is set to Push and/or Pull to another WINS server
that is not configured to Push/Pull back.

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this problem:

- Stop replication on both WINS servers.

-or-

- Properly configure Push/Pull replication on both WINS servers.

For additional information about configuring WINS replication see Chapter 5 of
the Windows NTServer TCP/IP manual.
