Netsh commands for WINS

  • Artigo

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

Netsh commands for WINS

The Netsh commands for WINS offer a command-line tool for administering WINS servers that can be used as an equivalent alternative to console-based management. This is useful in the following situations:

  • When managing WINS servers in wide area networks (WANs), commands can be used in interactive mode at the Netsh command prompt to better manage slow-speed network links.

  • When managing a large number of WINS servers, commands can be used in batch mode to script and automate recurring administrative tasks that need to be performed for all WINS servers.

You can run these commands from the Windows Server 2003 family command prompt or from the command prompt for the Netsh wins context. For these commands to work at the Windows Server 2003 family command prompt, you must type netsh wins before typing commands and parameters as they appear in the syntax below. There might be functional differences between Netsh context commands on Windows 2000 and the Windows Server 2003 family.

Notes

  • Unless otherwise specified, field tags (such as Name= and EndChar=) are optional. If tags are used, they must be applied to all of the parameters in the command. If tags are omitted, a value must be provided for each of the fields that are supported in this command.

  • The terms Persona Non Grata and Persona Grata refer to the Windows Server 2003 family features Block records for these owners and Accept records only for these owners, respectively.

  • For more information about Netsh, see Netsh overview and Enter a netsh context.

  • For an example of how to use Netsh commands for WINS in batch files and scripts, see Netsh WINS example.

  • For more information about how to use the Netsh commands for WINS, see Use WINS Command-line Tools.

    Indicates whether to override the WINS consistency check under overload conditions: 1-Override, 0-Otherwise (default).
Remarks

  • It is a network and resource intensive operation to check all replicas for consistency.

Remarks

  • Tags are required for this command. Whenever inconsistencies are found, repair is attempted.

  • The format for Name in both NameFile and NameList is Name*16thchar, where Name is the record name and 16thchar is the 16th character for the record.

  • In the file, name entries are separated by commas or carriage returns/line feeds.

Examples

In the first example, this command checks WINS data against the Names.txt and Servers.txt files, assuming those files to be located in the specified path location (the root of drive D).

Parameters
  • [ Server=] IPAddress
    Required. Specifies the IP address of the start WINS server.
  • [ File=] FileName
    Specifies the file in which to store the index to IP address table. If omitted, check version creates the file Wins.rec in the current directory and stores the index to IP address table there.
Remarks

  • If you provide an invalid file name, FileName is set to Wins.rec in the current directory.

  • You might need to increase the width of the command window to make it wide enough to view the table correctly.

    Record Name Record Type

    MYPC-1

    [00h]Workstation
Examples

In the following example, this command searches for records named dc1 with an end character of 1c, ignores name case, and outputs the information to the names.txt file located in C:\WINSfiles.

set defaultparam

Sets the default parameters for WINS server configuration.

Syntax

set defaultparam

Parameters

none

Remarks
  • This command sets all the configuration parameters for the WINS server to their default values. It is recommended that you run this command after WINS service installation to configure the server with default parameter settings.

set logparam

Sets or resets database and detailed event logging parameters. Used without parameters, the current values are maintained.

Syntax

set logparam [[DBChange=]{0 | 1}] [[Event=]{0 | 1}]
