Hello, I am having a problem in where I have a PPP server running on a FreeBSD 2.1.7 box that is used for UUCP mail and occassional dialin to access the local LAN via PPPD. Everything works ok, but I am having a problem using WINS at this site. The site has a Windows NT server that is running a wins server. I statically put the address of this wins server in my configuration of Windows 95. I then dial the FreeBSD box, get connected, can ping anywhere & do anything, but wins is not functioning properly. Looking at the wins database, I see that I got myself registered, but I cannot resolve anything. I have not experienced this using other PPP servers (i.e. livingston, 3COM, etc) and the configuration is the same. Has anybody else had this problem? Tim --- Tim Pushor Orion Technologies Inc.
