Worth noting is the popular confusion between the names NetBIOS and NetBEUI. NetBEUI originated strictly as the moniker for IBM's enhanced 1985 NetBIOS emulator for token ring. The name NetBEUI should have died there, considering that at the time, the NetBIOS implementations by other companies were known simply as NetBIOS regardless of whether they incorporated the API extensions found in that emulator. For MS-NET, however, Microsoft elected to name its implementation of the NBF protocol "NetBEUI" - literally naming its implementation of the transport protocol after IBM's second version of the API. Consequently, even today, Microsoft file and printer sharing over Ethernet continues to be called NetBEUI, with the name NetBIOS commonly used only in reference to file and printer sharing overTCP/IP. In truth, the former is NetBIOS over NBF, and the latter is NetBIOS over NBT.

Windows XP does not automatically install NetBEUI, as Microsoft considers it a legacy protocol.
NetBios Extended User Interface
Pronounced net-booey, NetBEUI is short for NetBios Extended User Interface.It is an enhanced version of the NetBIOS protocol used by network operating systems such as LAN Manager, LAN Server, Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95 and Windows NT.

No, you cannot have the same netbios names because there would be a conflict between the computers and Netbios names are unique names.
NetBEUI is the only listed protocol that is not routable; the rest are.
when is NetBIOS routable
IPX/SPX : Routable // TCP/IP : Routable // NetBEUI : Not Routable
NetBEUI (NetBIOS Extended User Interface) is a networking protocol that is characterized by its simplicity and ease of use, making it suitable for small networks. It operates at the transport layer and is designed for local area networks (LANs), supporting small-scale network environments without the need for extensive configuration. NetBEUI is connectionless, meaning it does not provide reliable delivery of packets, and it lacks the routing capabilities found in more complex protocols. Additionally, it is limited to a maximum network size due to its broadcast-based communication method, which can lead to network congestion in larger setups.
No - WINS will translate between NetBios names.
No DNS is based on the hirearchal system not NetBIOS.
Windows XP does not automatically install NetBEUI, as Microsoft considers it a legacy protocol.
Because it is not IP based.
