WINS = Windows Internet Name Service

Navneservice (=INS=NBNS) i Windows NT Server TCP/IP-netværk - oversætter NetBIOS-navne til IP-adresser.
 

WINS is the Microsoft implementation of NetBIOS name service. Samba on Linux can be used as a WINS server.

Computers configured to use WINS, when booted, contact the WINS name server and give the server their NetBIOS name and IP address. The WINS server adds the information to its database and it may send the information to other WINS servers on your network. When a computer that is configured to use WINS needs to get an address of another computer, it will contact the WINS server for the information. Without the use of a WINS server, NetBIOS will only be able to see computers on the unrouted sections of the local network.

 

[whatis] Part of the Microsoft Windows NT Server, manages the association of workstation names and locations with IP addresses without the user or an administrator having to be involved in each configuration change. WINS automatically creates a computer name-IP address mapping entry in a table, ensuring that the name is unique and not a duplicate of someone else's computer name. When a computer is moved to another geographic location, the subnet part of the IP address is likely to change. Using WINS, the new subnet information will be updated automatically in the WINS table. WINS complements the NT Server's DHCP, which negotiates an IP address for any computer (such as your workstation) when it is first defined to the network.
DHCP and WINS have been submitted to the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as proposed open standards in Request for Comments 1533, 1534, 1541, and 1542.
 

[Techweb] Name resolution software from Microsoft that runs under Windows NT Server and converts NetBIOS names to IP addresses. Windows machines are assigned NetBIOS names, which must be converted to IP addresses if the underlying transport protocol is TCP/IP.
Windows machines identify themselves to the WINS server, so that other Windows machines can query the server to find the IP address. Since, the WINS server itself is contacted by IP address, which can be routed across subnets, WINS allows Windows machines on one LAN segment to locate Windows machines on other LAN segments by name.
When a computer is assigned an IP address by DHCP, the WINS database is updated. In a Windows-only network, WINS is queried for name resolution. In a mixed environment, a UNIX machine has to query the Microsoft DNS server, which in turn queries the WINS server, because the DHCP in Windows NT does not update the DNS server. The DHCP in Windows 2000 does however update the DNS server (Dynamic DNS). See DNS.
In an IP network, the application queries a WINS or DNS server to turn the name of the machine it wishes to communicate with into its IP address. See TCP/IP abc's.

WINS-Server in NT Server 3.5- with a NetBIOS-name to IP-address database.
Works with DHCP to dynamically update the name-to-address database.
The WINS-Server requires a fixed IP-address
 
WINS-Client in Win95 is installed with TCP/IP. On Logon, registers NetBIOS-name and IP-address with the WINS-server

Winsock

The Windows implementation of the TCP/IP sockets interface
Windows Internet API

 

[Techweb] (WINdows SOCKets) A programming interface (API) between a Windows application and the TCP/IP protocol. Most TCP/IP stacks designed to run under Windows and most Windows software that communicates via TCP/IP is Winsock compliant. The Winsock routines are implemented as a dynamic link library, and the WINSOCK.DLL file is included with Windows 95/98.
Networking and Internet programs often include a WINSOCK.DLL, which may overwrite the one that is present, causing problems with other networking applications that use it. The WINSOCK.DLL is included either to ensure that you have one or because it contains modifications to provide additional functionality at runtime needed by the application.
