whitepaper Domain Name Service (DNS)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  In the early days of the ARPANET, the forerunner to today's Internet, there were only a small number of computers attached to the network. As the ARPANET continued to grow, it became clear that ARPANET needed a better solution. Several proposals were generated based on the concept of a distributed naming service, which was based on a hierarchical name space. RFCs 882 and 883 emerged, which described the design for a domain name system, based on a distributed database containing generalized resource information. This design evolved, and RFCs 1034 and 1035 were issued to describe the Domain Name System (DNS) service used in today's Internet. This paper describes Microsoft Windows 2000's implementation of the DNS protocol.

  In today's well-connected network-centric world, name resolution is a critical component of any Windows Server 2003 network. The Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) has fallen out of favor with the move away from the Network Basic Input/Output System (NetBIOS) and NetBIOS Extended User Interface (NetBEUI), but it is still lingering in the background for many administrators who are faced with maintaining a heterogeneous network environment. Despite the fact that Windows Server 2003 (and Windows 2000 Server for that matter) runs on Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) through and through, many networks still must support legacy Windows 9x and NT clients; thus, WINS still has a small place in Windows Server 2003 and therefore in the MCSE exam.

whitepaper MCSA/MCSE Exam 70-291 Exam Cram: Managing Name Resolution2003-12-05 Pearson Education
  Each machine on a computer network is assigned a unique network address. Computers communicate with each other across networks by connecting to these network addresses. These numbers, also known as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, consist of four groups of numbers, or octets, and can be difficult for people to remember. To solve this dilemma, a system was developed whereby people can use "Friendly" names that are then translated automatically into IP addresses that computers use to locate each other and to communicate. The software that translates these names to network addresses is called the Domain Name System (DNS). This paper introduces the Windows Server 2003 implementation of DNS.
