I am having trouble with a WINS server, which seems to be returning an incorrect ip address. At there any utilities to debug the name resolution process step by step, either from Unix, win95 or winnt. I can work around the problem by using a different WINS server or a lmhosts file, which convinces me it is broken, but our PC support people would prefer more direct proof of failure. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (Mr) David Billinghurst Comalco Research PO Box 316, Thomastown, Vic, Australia, 3074 Phone: +61 3 9469 0642 FAX: +61 3 9462 2700 Email: David.Billinghurst@riotinto.com.au
