SYMPTOMS

If you use a one-letter domain name and if WINS is installed on the primary domain controller (PDC), the domain name shows up twice in the browse list. For example: F and F... (F with 3 dots).

RESOLUTION

Do not use one-letter domain names or install WINS on a computer other than the PDC.
