By it nearly all +information resources (host names) are resolved to their Internet protocol (IP) address. +Windows networking tried hard to avoid the complexities of DNS, but alas, DNS won. +<indexterm><primary>WINS</primary></indexterm> +The alternative to DNS, the Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) an artifact of +NetBIOS networking over the TCP/IP protocols, has demonstrated scalability problems as +well as a flat non-hierarchical name space that became unmanageable as the size and +complexity of information technology networks grew. +</para> + +<para> +WINS is a Microsoft implementation of the RFC1001/1002 NetBIOS Name Service (NBNS). +It allows NetBIOS clients (like Microsoft Windows Machines) to register an arbitrary +machine name that the administrator or user has chosen together with the IP +address that the machine has been given. Through the use of WINS, network client machines +could resolve machine names to their IP address. +</para> + +<para> +The demand for an alternative to the limitations of NetBIOS networking finally drove +Microsoft to use DNS and Active Directory. Microsoft's new implementation attempts +to use DNS in a manner similar to the way that WINS is used for NetBIOS networking. +Both WINS and Microsoft DNS rely on dynamic name registration. +</para> + +<para> +Microsoft Windows clients can perform dynamic name registration to the DNS server +on start-up. Alternately, where DHCP is used to assign workstation IP addresses, +it is possible to register host names and their IP address by the DHCP server as +soon as a client acknowledges an IP address lease. Lastly, Microsoft DNS can resolve +hostnames via Microsoft WINS. +</para> + +<para> +The following configurations demonstrate a simple insecure Dynamic DNS server and +a simple DHCP server that matches the DNS configuration. +</para> + + <sect2> + <title>Dynamic DNS</title> + + <para> + <indexterm><primary>DNS</primary><secondary>Dynamic</secondary></indexterm> + The example DNS configuration is for a private network in the IP address + space for network 192.168.1.0/24.
