Is BackOffice 2000 out yet? If not, when is it due, and if so, where can I get it? Thanks.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. I'm gonna want to do WINS, and I will have 3 BDCs at 3 different remote locations running LANs...so, will I want to use WINS for this? Also, will WINS speed up network browsing, right now it is very slow? Thanks again. Bill

Hey guys, I'll try to make this short and sweet. I'm getting ready to do some networking of remote locations into a central PDC, but before I do any of that, I need to get the PDC up to speed. First of all, what is a WINS Server and why would I need one (This PDC has 6 computers already on a LAN)? The guy before me never did anything with WINS or LMHOSTS, so I'm wondering, what do I need to do to get these things set up? Also, why would I need a DNS server? What good would it do me and how would I set it up? Any help you can provide is extremely appreciated. Bill Roland
