SYMPTOMS
========
When you restart your computer, the WINS Server setting may not be retained.
This setting is located on the WINS Configuration tab in the properties for the
TCP/IP protocol.
CAUSE
=====
Windows 95 requires both the primary and secondary entries for the WINS Server
setting. If you enter only the primary WINS server's IP address, the setting is
not retained.
RESOLUTION
==========
If there is only one WINS server for the network, enter the IP address for the
server in both the primary and secondary WINS Server setting boxes.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows 95. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
