I wanted to send a welcome and introduction for Suresh Ramchandran, he is a level 3 directory services engineer at Pfizer, and has just joined this list. He also has quite a bit of knowledge in WINS and DNS. And PS I am no longer at Applebee's. Rich Milburn AD Technical Consultant Hewlett-Packard Company (assigned to Pfizer Global Directory Services)

"quick, WINS or DNS, which is better?" In what way? 1. Which one has the smaller more tractable code base? 2. Which one has the fewest documented security exploits against it in the last year? Last 2 years? Last 5 years? 3. Which one is the simpler to understand? 4. Which one do most admins not screw up as much? 5. Which one has more letters in the name? 6. Which one has more vowels in the name? 7. Which one helps enforce the idea that you need unique machine names in a forest?

I infer you ain't got no boxes running OS X, Unix, Red Hat, Ubuntu that you need to deal with. Last I checked, it was the 21st century. All Windows shops are getting harder to find each day.

While there is nothing specific that I can recall in the specs of Kerberos that relates to DNS, I do believe a fundamental aspect of Kerberos is have realms. WINS is a flat namespace and wouldn't scale well in regards to realms. Do you know a single Kerberos environment on the planet that does not use DNS for Name resolution? Not to mention interop. I can't imagine UNIX/Linux shops using WINS which would be a requirement. Lets face it... MS lost the name resolution battle. WINS will die soon.
