| 16 | There are few subjects in the UNIX world that might raise as much contention as | 
|---|
| 17 | Domain Name System (DNS) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). |

| 18 | Not all opinions held for or against particular implementations of DNS and DHCP |

| 23 | We live in a modern age where many information technology users demand mobility |

| 30 | UNIX administrators have a point. Many of the normative practices in the Microsoft | 
|---|
| 31 | Windows world at best border on bad practice from a security perspective. | 
|---|
| 32 | Microsoft Windows networking protocols allow workstations to arbitrarily register | 
|---|
| 33 | themselves on a network. Windows 2000 Active Directory registers entries in the DNS namespace | 
|---|
| 34 | that are equally perplexing to UNIX administrators. Welcome to the new world! |

| 56 | This chapter explicitly does not provide a tutorial, nor does it pretend to be a reference guide on DNS and |

| 57 | DHCP, as this is well beyond the scope and intent of this document as a whole. Anyone who wants more detailed |

| 58 | reference materials on DNS or DHCP should visit the ISC Web site at <ulink noescape="1" |

| 80 | The DNS is to the Internet what water is to life. Nearly all information resources (host names) are resolved | 
|---|
| 81 | to their Internet protocol (IP) addresses through DNS.  Windows networking tried hard to avoid the | 
|---|
| 82 | complexities of DNS, but alas, DNS won.  <indexterm><primary>WINS</primary></indexterm> The alternative to | 
|---|
| 83 | DNS, the Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) &smbmdash; an artifact of NetBIOS networking over the TCP/IP | 
|---|
| 84 | protocols &smbmdash; has demonstrated scalability problems as well as a flat, nonhierarchical namespace that | 
|---|
| 85 | became unmanageable as the size and complexity of information technology networks grew. |

| 91 | WINS is a Microsoft implementation of the RFC1001/1002 NetBIOS Name Service (NBNS). | 
|---|
| 92 | It allows NetBIOS clients (like Microsoft Windows machines) to register an arbitrary | 
|---|
| 93 | machine name that the administrator or user has chosen together with the IP | 
|---|
| 94 | address that the machine has been given. Through the use of WINS, network client machines | 
|---|
| 95 | could resolve machine names to their IP address. |

| 99 | The demand for an alternative to the limitations of NetBIOS networking finally drove | 
|---|
| 100 | Microsoft to use DNS and Active Directory. Microsoft's new implementation attempts | 
|---|
| 101 | to use DNS in a manner similar to the way that WINS is used for NetBIOS networking. | 
|---|
| 102 | Both WINS and Microsoft DNS rely on dynamic name registration. |

| 106 | Microsoft Windows clients can perform dynamic name registration to the DNS server | 
|---|
| 107 | on startup. Alternatively, where DHCP is used to assign workstation IP addresses, | 
|---|
| 108 | it is possible to register hostnames and their IP address by the DHCP server as | 
|---|
| 109 | soon as a client acknowledges an IP address lease. Finally, Microsoft DNS can resolve | 
|---|
| 110 | hostnames via Microsoft WINS. |
