WINS (Windows Internet Name Service)
The service WINS resolves NetBios names into IP addresses and is therefore an elementary component of a Windows network. Given this fact, this service should already be installed on the Windows Server located in the network.
This is how you install WINS (Windows Internet Name Service)
1. Click on “Start | Settings | Control Panel.”
Double click on “Software” and then select “Add/Remove Windows Components“.
2. In the wizard for Windows components, select “Components | Network Services | Details”.
3. Activate the checkbox “WINS (Windows Internet Name Service)” in the dialog field “Network Services”.
4. Then click on "OK".
The WINS server can update the resource entries in the DNS server.
A more extensive configuration of the WINS is not necessary.
