With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

Vista Causing Wins Entries To Change IP Addresses

Asked by swappedsr in WINS

I have a strange one here. When connecting a vista ultimate 32 bit machine to our company lan, we have experienced a problem where our Wins server starts acting up. Basically, when this Vista laptop comes onto the network with netbios over tcp/ip enabled, the wins server starts changing the address of other clients/servers to the same ip address that was assigned to the vista laptop???. It is the strangest thing and I can't figure it out. It is assigned a 10.185.10.47 address and when it comes online, almost every entry or future entry listed in Wins changes its ip to the ip assigned to the Vista client. This machine is not part of the domain and does have an entry in reverse lookup (DNS). Once I disable netbios over tcp/ip, it doesn't give me the ip problem, but now he can no longer view the machines through network, but machines are still mappable.
