Windows internet Naming Service.

It was used with a WINS server in older MS networks for name

resolution.

Newer MS Server OSs are tightly integrated with DNS and don't require

WINS.

WINS and DNS can only used for name resolution in a client/server

network, such as a Windows domain.

A workgroup (peer-to-peer) network uses NetBIOS over TCP/IP for name

resolution
