you see the file name is WINS. which stands for window internet name service see the resolution happens like this (p.s WINS, is not a file name it is a protocol) NetBIOS, broadcasts names to listening nodes on the network. NetBIOS utilizes a User Datagram Protocol UDP, query to broadcast names. NetBIOS names identified computer on the network before the introduction of Windows 2000. The NetBIOS name is resolved to an IP address through windows Internet Name Service WINS,broadcasting, or the LMHOSTS file. If the LAN is a NetBIOS LAN, the NetBIOS name is then the network address. The NetBIOS name is assigned by an administrator when the operating system is installed. To enable communication, the following requirements exist. i hope i have helped
nbtstat is a command-line utility in Windows used for troubleshooting NetBIOS over TCP/IP connections. It displays protocol statistics and current TCP/IP connections that use NetBIOS, allowing users to view NetBIOS name tables and resolve issues related to name resolution and connection problems. The tool is particularly useful for diagnosing network issues in environments using legacy NetBIOS services.
Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) provides a dynamic replicated database service that can register and resolve NetBIOS names to IP addresses used on your network. The Microsoft® Windows Server 2003 family provides WINS, which enables the server computer to act as a NetBIOS name server and register and resolve names for WINS-enabled client computers on your network as described in the NetBIOS over TCP/IP standards.

10BaseT is another name for co-axial cable. It has a maximum cable length of 185 meters or 607 ft.
NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) enabled means that the NetBIOS protocol can operate over TCP/IP networks. This allows legacy applications that rely on NetBIOS for network communication to function on modern IP-based networks. When enabled, it facilitates name resolution and session services for devices on the network, enabling them to communicate more effectively. This feature is often used in Windows environments for file sharing and printer access.
No, you cannot have the same netbios names because there would be a conflict between the computers and Netbios names are unique names.
The command to clear the NetBIOS name cache table is nbtstat -R. This command releases and refreshes the NetBIOS name cache, effectively clearing it. You can run this command in the Command Prompt on a Windows system. Additionally, you can use nbtstat -S to view the current NetBIOS name cache entries.
Lmhosts: provides NetBIOS-name-to-IP-address resolution
