DNS
Domain Name System is a database system that translates addresses
and domain names. For example, a numeric address like 232.245.021.54
can become something such as cba.com. DNS can also be used to
control Internet email delivery.
WINS
In Pocket PC, Windows Internet Naming Service has two functions; one is
a Microsoft Net BIO name server that eliminates the broadcasts needed
to resolve computer names to IP addresses by providing a cache or
database of translations. The other one is to set the IP address of the
host computer that you already construct the partnership for Network
adaptor Active sync purpose.
Without setting the host computer’s IP address in the WINS, you cannot
wirelessly synchronize your Pocket PC with your host computer.
