With the WINS data cleared. for the past 20 min. (I did it before I wrote about it) Neither PDC has reported to WINS. So no wonder my PC's can't find their domain. So how do I make sure that 192.168.6.1 is added to wins.dat. I could do it manually but I would rather it communicate the way that it was intended to just so I know that the network is configured and working correctly.
Is the wins server address configured in the PDCs? I thought the way this was supposed to work was that the master browsers on each subnet would update their addresses to the wins server - and that a pdc would always be the master browser on its subnet. If the wins address is configured, are there firewalls between them?
