How to clear WINS server entries from Windows XP Pro systems


Recommended Posts

Posted

When I set up a Windows XP system, the computer is connected to our

network and recieves it's IP address information through a DHCP

server. This includes the IP address of our Primary WINS server. The

system is only placed on our network to activate Windows. After

completing activation, a static IP address and network are assigned,

the system is shut down and shipped to our clients.

 

When the systems are powered up at the client site and put on their

network, the entry for our Primary WINS server still exists if they

run 'ipconfig /all'. There is no WINS server on this network. If we

go into the WINS tab of 'Advanced TCP/IP Settings', no WINS server is

listed.

 

How can I remove Primary WINS server entry before shipping the systems

to clients?

 

TIA,

 

Ken
