I am trying to set up WINS on my NT 4 machine.  I have tried to delete
and then reinstall the service using my NT CD.  After doing this I get
a very strange result.  I see two IP addresses for WINS servers.  One
is the address of my real server.  The other is 0.225.0.184, which i
don't understand.  Also, looking at the properties of my server, I see
this false IP address.  When I last checked the WINS database schema
file, I did not see it there.  No statistics are recorded either. 
This server used to have a BDC, which I got rid of.  Also, I have
changed IP addresses several times over the past year.  I have never
been able to get WINS to work, during this past year.  Do I need to
totally reinstall NT?  I don't totally need to install WINS, more for
experience than anything else.
