MORE INFORMATION
- Run Winsdmp.exe to dump the WINS database.
Example:
WINSDMP 130.0.10.1 > Winsdata.txt
The following is an example line that information that WINSDMP
provides:
130.10.10.10,"TEST ",0,17,3,0,0,502,0,820870950,1,130.0.25.14
The following table lists each item in the example above on the left
side and the corresponding explanation for the example item on the
right side:
Example Item Explanation for Example Item
------------ ----------------------------
130.10.10.10 The IP address of the owner of the entry
"TEST" The NetBIOS name of the entry
0 The 16th character of the NetBIOS name
17 The number of characters in the name
(15 for NetBIOS name + 2 for ID)
3 Type of Record
0 State of Record
0 Version ID (High order)
502 Version ID (Low order)
0 Static Flag
820870950 Time Stamp
1 Number of records in entry
130.0.25.14 IP Addresses assigned to entry
The possible Record Type values are defined as:
UNIQUE = 0
NORMAL GROUP = 1
SPECIAL GROUP = 2
MULTIHOMED = 3
The possible Record State values are defined as:
ACTIVE = 0
RELEASED = 1
TOMBSTONE = 2
- Use the data from the dump to compile a list of entries (or a range of
entries) to be removed from the WINS database. Then use the Winscl.exe
utility to delete the individual entry or the range of entries.
If you want to remove a range of consecutive entries, enter the minimum
and maximum versions when prompted by WINSCL. If you want to remove
multiple non-consecutive entries, they must be processed individually.
The example below uses low order bit of the version ID (which is 502 in
the earlier example) and the high order bit (which is 0 in the earlier
example) to remove a single WINS entry.
Example: (with annotations in <<< >>>)
Winscl.exe
TCP/IP or named pipe. Enter 1 for TCP/IP - 1 <<<enter 1 here>>>
Address of Nameserver to contact--130.0.10.1 <<<this is the IP address
of the WINS server>>>
RN-Register a name
QN-Query a name
DN-Delete a name
GV-Get the current vers. counter value
GM-Get the Owner Id to Max. Vers. No. mappings
GMO-Get the Owner Id to Max. Vers. No. mappings (3.5 WINS)
GST-Get WINS statistics
GSTO-Get WINS statistics (3.5 WINS)
PUSHT-Send a push trigger to another WINS
PULLT-Send a pull trigger to another WINS
SI-Statically initialize the WINS
CC-Initiate consistency check on the WINS - HIGH OVERHEAD OPERATION
SC-Initiate scavenging on the WINS
DRR-Delete all or a range of records
PRR-Pull all or a range of records from another WINS
GRBN-Get records by name
GRBV-Get Records by version numbers
BK-Backup the database
RS-Restore the db
RSO-Restore the db (created by a pre-SUR WINS)
RC-Reset WINS counters
CR-Count the number of recs. in the db
GI-Get Info about WINS
SDB-Search the db
GD-Get domain names
DW-Delete WINS records and info.
CW-Connect Wins
WA-Get Add of current Wins
ME-SHOW MENU
NOME-DONT SHOW MENU
EX-Terminate winscl
Command - DRR <<<this command deletes a record or range of records>>>
Address of Owner Wins -- 130.10.10.10 <<<this is the IP address of the
WINS server which owns the entry>>>
Min. Vers. No (<high part> <low part> -- 0 502 <<<this is the minimum
version ID>>>
Max. Vers. No (<high part> <low part> -- 0 502 <<<this is the maximum
version ID. In this case, since the min. and max. are the same, only one
registration will be deleted>>>
Status returned is (SUCCESS - 0)
NOTE: If the Maximum Version Number is different than the Minimum
Version Number it will delete the full range. The version number can also
be obtained from the WINS Manager in the Show Database window under
version ID column. The version ID shown in this window is in HEX. It needs
to be converted to decimal to use with Winscl.exe. For example, if the
version ID is 201 for the record that needs to be deleted, the Minimum
version number becomes 0 513 when used with WINSCL.
