Compacting the WINS Database

You can compact the WINS database to reduce its size. However, WINS under NT 4.0 is designed to automatically compact the database, so you shouldn’t have to compact it. To force manual compacting of the database, use the JETPACK utility in the \WINNT\SYSTEM32\WINS directory. (The WINS database is a JET database, so this utility packs that database.) To pack the database, you must first stop the WINS service. You cannot pack an open database. Then type the following command:

jetpack WINS.mdb temp.mdb

This command compacts the database into the file temp.mdb, then copies the compacted database to WINS.mdb. The temporary file is deleted. After the database is compacted, you can restart the WINS service from Control Panel, Services.
