| Hi All,
Heres one for you,
When does a Wins client first attempt to renew its lease?
Trans says : 1st attempt at 1/8th of TTL
Micrsoft On-line Documentation says : 50% of TTL.
Who should I beleive?
Any help welcome!
Cheers me dears

|  This is the correct procedure:
When a WINS client refreshes its name, it performs the following steps:
1. When a client has consumed half (50%) of its renewal interval, it sends a name refresh request to the primary WINS server.
2. If its name is not refreshed by the primary WINS server, the WINS client tries to refresh again in 10 minutes and continues to try the primary WINS server repeatedly every 10 minutes for a total of 1 hour. The WINS client, after trying to refresh its name registration with the primary WINS server for 1 hour, stops trying and attempts to refresh its name with the secondary WINS server.
3. If it is not refreshed by the secondary WINS server, the WINS client tries to refresh its name again using the secondary WINS server in 10 minutes and continues to try every 10 minutes for a total of 1 hour. The WINS client, after trying to refresh on the secondary WINS server for 1 hour, stops trying and tries to refresh using the primary WINS server. This process of thrying the primary WINS server and then the secondary WINS server continues until the renewal interval is consumed or the WINS client has its name refreshed.
4. If the WINS client succeeds in refreshing its name, the renewal interval is reset on the WINS server.
5. If the WINS client fails to register during the renewal interval on either the primary or secondary WINS server, the name is released.
When a WINS server receives the name refresh request, it send the client a name refresh response with a new TTL.
Hope this helps!! By the way I would always go with what MS say - there the ones testing you!! | |

| thanks wba
I think the difference is MS says 1/2 renewal interval and trans says 1/8th ttl
not quite sure the ttl comprises of any ideas?
p.s, no idea what what the other post replies are on about. I recommend chat rooms and telephones serve better for private jokes.
ha ha ha arrrrrrrghhh! |
