What type of file resolves NetBIOS names to IP addresses?

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

Differences between WINS push and pull replications?

To replicate database entries between a pair of WINS servers, you must configure each WINS server as a pull partner, a push partner, or both with the other WINS server. * A push partner is a WINS server that sends a message to its pull partners, notifying them that it has new WINS database entries. When a WINS server's pull partner responds to the message with a replication request, the WINS server sends (pushes) copies of its new WINS database entries (also known as replicas) to the requesting pull partner. * A pull partner is a WINS server that pulls WINS database entries from its push partners by requesting any new WINS database entries that the push partners have. The pull partner requests the new WINS database entries that have a higher version number than the last entry the pull partner received during the most recent replication. regards Neokan

What is the difference between tombstoning a WINS record and simply deleting it?

Simple deletion removes the records that are selected in the WINS console only from the local WINS server you are currently managing. If the WINS records deleted in this way exist in WINS data replicated to other WINS servers on your network, these additional records are not fully removed. Also, records that are simply deleted on only one server can reappear after replication between the WINS server where simple deletion was used and any of its replication partners. Tombstoning marks the selected records as tombstoned, that is, marked locally as extinct and immediately released from active use by the local WINS server. This method allows the tombstoned records to remain present in the server database for purposes of subsequent replication of these records to other servers. When the tombstoned records are replicated, the tombstone status is updated and applied by other WINS servers that store replicated copies of these records. Each replicating WINS server then updates and tombstones

WINS server works only at level of LAN and uses a list of IP addresses with corresponding names, it does not allow you to use domains. DNS is almost the same thing but it allows you to span the network in domains and work with them.
