About this tag
Discussions tagged with bindings on WindowsForum.com cover a range of Windows Server and development topics. In IIS and WSUS contexts, bindings refer to the configuration of website bindings in IIS, such as IP addresses, ports, and hostnames, which can cause failures like 0x80070003 if misconfigured. Server Manager may show unwanted network bindings, like a 169.254 address, that need to be unbound to avoid IIS issues. In software development, bindings are wrappers that allow languages like Rust and C# to call Win32 APIs, with projects like Rust for Windows providing idiomatic bindings. XAML Islands enable Win32 apps to host UWP controls via bindings. Keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+V are also referred to as key bindings. DNS zone transfer (AXFR) bindings can leak domain information if misconfigured.

    Server manager shows 2 addresses; 192.16.1.x and 169.254.x.x. The first is the valid address, the second I assume is because I always clean install all Windows with the network disconnected. The motherboard, and X299 XPower Gaming AC motherboard has 2 onboard NICS. But I have a 10G PCIe adapter...
