Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) is Microsoft's implementation of NetBIOS Name Service (NBNS), a name server and service for NetBIOS computer names. Effectively, WINS is to NetBIOS names what DNS is to domain names "a central mapping of host names to network addresses.

LMHOSTS file : is used for a NetBIOS name resolution, or it that maps (IP addresses ---- > NetBIOS names) of remote servers.

WINS : it that maps (NetBIOS names of remote server ------- > IP addresses).
