Properties of WINS replication partners are specified under the \Wins\Partners key.
Data type = REG_MULTI_SZ
Default = None
This parameter specifies the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of WINS servers whose records are not to be inserted into the local database during replication. If there are incorrect records in the databases of one or more WINS servers on your network, you can prevent those records from being replicated to your WINS Server database by specifying the IP addresses of the WINS servers that own them under the PersonaNonGrata parameter.
The \Wins\Partners key has two subkeys, \Pull and \Push, under which are subkeys for the IP addresses of all push and pull partners, respectively, of the WINS server.
A push partner, listed under the \Partners\Pull key, is one from which a WINS server pulls replicas and from which it can expect update notification messages. The following parameter appears under the IP address for a specific push partner. This parameter can be set only by changing the value in Registry Editor:
Data type = REG_DWORD
Range = 0 or 1
Default = 0
Specifies the order of precedence of addresses in an internet group, those for which the sixteenth byte is 0x1C. Addresses in the 0x1C names pulled from a WINS partner are given the precedence assigned to the WINS server. 0 indicates low precedence, and 1 indicates high precedence. Locally registered names always have high precedence. Set this value to 1 if this WINS server is serving a geographic location that is nearby.
The following parameters appear under this subkey and can be set in the WINS Server Configuration dialog box:
..\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wins\Partners\PullInitTimeReplication
CommRetryCount
The following parameters appear under this subkey and can be set using the Preferences dialog box:
..\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wins\Partners\Pull\<Ip Address>SpTime (Start Time for pull partner default configuration)
TimeInterval (Replication Interval)
For SpTime, WINS replicates at the set time if it is in the future for that day. After that, it replicates every number of seconds specified by TimeInterval. If SpTime is in the past for that day, WINS replicates every number of seconds specified by TimeInterval, starting from the current time (if InitTimeReplication is set to 1).
A pull partner of a WINS server, listed under the \Partners\Push key, is one from which it can expect pull requests to pull replicas and to which it sends update notification messages.
Data type = REG_DWORD
Range = 0 or 1
Default = 0
If set to 1, only dynamically registered records are replicated to a pull partner. If set to 0, the default, all records, both dynamic and static, are replicated.
The following parameters appear under this subkey and can be set using the options available in the WINS Server Configuration dialog box:
..\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wins\Partners\PushInitTimeReplication
RplOnAddressChg
The following parameter appears under this subkey and can be set using the options available in the Preferences dialog box:
..\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wins\Partners\Push\<Ip Address> UpdateCount
