<h3 id="wins">iSeries NetServer and Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) management</h3>
<p><span class="bold">Connecting your PC Client with WINS</span></p>
<p>Windows NT servers and Linux Samba server can provide the Windows
Internet Naming Service (WINS), which allows clients to map server system
names to their actual TCP/IP addresses. WINS is a dynamic naming service that
resolves NetBIOS computer names to IP addresses. Although the iSeries server
cannot act as a WINS server, it can act as a WINS proxy. This enables non-WINS
clients to obtain name resolution from WINS. A WINS proxy receives broadcasted
name requests from non-WINS clients and resolves them by directing queries
to a WINS server.</p>
<a name="wq18"></a>
<div class="notetitle" id="wq18">Note:</div>
<div class="notebody">Using WINS Proxy is not a recommended method
of resolving computer names to IP addresses.</div>
<p>You can specify an address for a network WINS server on the iSeries NetServer&trade; <span class="bold">WINS configuration - Next start </span> dialog box in iSeries Navigator.
You can then configure clients to connect to iSeries NetServer by using the WINS server.</p>
<p>Once you configure your PC clients and iSeries NetServer with WINS addresses, you
do not need to perform any additional network configuration. PC clients can
now locate and connect to iSeries NetServer by using WINS.</p>
<a name="wq19"></a>
<div class="notetitle" id="wq19">Note:</div>
<div class="notebody">In a complex
TCP/IP network, where the iSeries NetServer is configured as a Logon Server, a WINS solution
for address resolution is better than DNS because logon clients in separate
subnets need to be able to resolve special NetBIOS service names in addition
to the configured iSeries NetServer name.</div>
<p><span class="bold">Configuring your PC Client with WINS</span></p>
<p>If you are using WINS, then you must configure iSeries NetServer with the address
of the network WINS server. You then need to configure your client with the iSeries NetServer IP
address or the WINS server IP address.</p>
<p>To configure your client for use with WINS, follow these steps:</p>
<p><span class="bold">If you are using WINS</span>, then you must <a href="rzahlnetwinsaddress.htm#netwinsaddress">configure iSeries NetServer with the address of the network WINS server</a>. You then
need to configure your client with the iSeries NetServer IP address or the WINS server
IP address. To configure your client for use with WINS, follow these steps:</p>
