------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USER ACTION:
1. Export your static entries, so you can import them after you have a new db.
2. Note the time and date when you start the work (We will use this later for check of event logs, if something goes wrong).
3. Remove all replication Partners on the server (Nothing should be replicating to or from the server you work with)
4. Stop replication partners in WINS Manager
5. Stop the WINS service if is up and running
6. Archive & remove the files in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Wins folder but do not delete the folder. (If you do delete the folder, simply recreate a Wins folder in this location. The folder is automatically created only when WINS is installed.)
7. We do this to clean out the WINS database
8. Restart the WINS server service
9. Windows 2000 automatically recreates the files and registers the services that the WINS server uses.
10. Check for any errors in the event log.
11. If you get any error at this time, make sure to note them and If everything looks fine configure Pull Push replication against the server you want it to replicate with
12. Finally choose "replicate now" for the server and let the replication occur
13. Check your event logs for any errors that might occur.
