I'm reading through a book on Samba 3 and it looks as though they are advocating WINS as the best choice for name resolution. I find this hard to believe as Microsoft has moved away from WINS themselves and back to DNS.
Am I missing something? IS WINS the best choice? I would think good old DNS name resolution would be more than sufficient.... Considering all computers (well, most) are configured to do name resolution through DNS servers. Or maybe WINS is the best choice in a pure Windows network environment where a Samba server might be the abnormal server? Thoughts? Comments? Shawn (ps. I do know that my Windows networking knowledge is a little out of date, so be gentle if I'm off my rocker regarding this.) _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca
