Claude is a network administrator. His network includes 100 Windows client, 10
Windows NT servers, and one Linux server that is running only Apache server and no
other network daemons. The Windows client systems and the NT servers all use WINS as
the primary means of the name resolution. Claude must ensure that every Windows client
and server can access the Linux server by the server’s host name. What is the most
efficient way to enable this?

A.
Claude should manually edit each hosts file on each workstation, adding the IP
address of Linux server

B.
Claude should install a DNS server and add an entry for the Linux server, then
configure each PC to consult the DNS server

C.
Claude should add a dynamic mapping entry in WINS for the Linux server

D.
Claude should add a static mapping entry in WINS for the Linux server

Explanation:
The trick here is that only a Web server is being run, and not Samba.
WINS is used to resolve NETBIOS calls, and NETBIOS is not used for WEB
Servers. So, IP to Name resolution is required, and the most efficient way to go will
be DNS.
Incorrect Answers:
A: This is not efficient, and a nightmare if the IP address of the Linux server shouldchange.
C: WINS is not used for Web Servers, only NETBIOS name resolution.
D: WINS is not used for Web Servers, only NETBIOS name resolution.
