Nevermind...need to read the whole msg...
I didn't notice you were installing WINS on
the NT box...hence the reboot.
Standard practice for Winxx:
1. Install, reboot
2. Update, reboot, repeat....
I support about 25 pc's-it annoys the hell
out of me how MS manages updates. How many
Internet Explorer security updates have there
been so far this year-22? Each one of them
requires a reboot...
22x25xdownload time+2 min's/reboot is a lot of
downtime for the users, and a lot of waiting
time for me. And it's only May...

Can you just stop/restart the WINS service?
Save you a reboot....
