What is the point of Wins (old ) and GNZ (new) server services for netbios.
Cann't you do everything in a zone file in dns with cnames , and A / AAAA names ,...etc
why the need for a second more localized names server on the network.
????
I see no point in it
Essentially DNS can do everything for associating names to ip address which essentially the only thing netbios , wins ,...dns ,...etc is used for if people remembered ip address we wouldn't have these problems
Or the need for these services
So why not for the love of god do everything with one services like they do with active directory.
As well DNS is not tied to any specific os arch ,...etc
But I am sure they will make some stupid feature to keep it around
