matheweis is right on... &nbsp;and I would even go a step further and say if your DHCP server supports it (depends on the server) you SHOULD hand on WINS addressing that way.

We are currently running a Windows 2003 server for our Domain Controller and DNS. I need the macs on the network to be able to resolve the computer names that are on the domain. For example, there is a computer on the network that is called &quot;support&quot;. I need to be able to resolve the name of &quot;support&quot; on the domain to the IP Address that is currently listed on the Wondows Domain controller.<br />
<br />
Anyone have any sugesstions.<br />

Apple devices including Macs, iPhones, iPods and iPad support standard wired and wireless networking technologies, but they also utilize custom applications and some special techniques for networking with each other and with non-Apple devices. Apple manufacturers the AirPort line of wireless networking products, and has its own networking protocols, AppleTalk and AFP (Apple Filing Protocol).
