SUMMARY

When you connect to a remote WINS Server using WINS Administrator, menu options within Server will be unavailable but all other options are available.

MORE INFORMATION

Permissions on the Server menu options, Configuration and Replication Partners keys, are controlled through the permissions on the following registry key: 
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wins\Parameters

If you are doing Remote Administration and have Administrative control of the local machine, but only limited permissions to the registry key, the menu options will appear dimmed.
