Can anyone tell me how to push out a secondary WINS server
to all my windows 2000 clients. We need to connect to
another organizations WINS server and it'd be a lot easier
if we could push this out rather than have to sit down and
fat finger it in on each workstation.

Thanks.

Chris

Chris--
try this if running a logon script is okay:
{dump into text and save as .vbs}

On Error Resume Next
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colNetCards = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * From Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration Where IPEnabled = True")
For Each objNetCard in colNetCards
strPrimaryServer = "your server here"
strSecondaryServer = "your server here"
objNetCard.SetWINSServer strPrimaryServer, strSecondaryServer
Next

regards,
KR
