Case Project 6-2: Resolving NetBIOS Name Resolution Problems

Badger Technology, a local company, has recently upgraded its network from Windows

2000 Server to Windows Server 2008. Since the upgrade, 10 Badger users have been unable

to use an important line-of-business application. This desktop application uses name reso-

lution to connect to a central database on the network. The database server is called

DB1.badgertech.priv and has an IP address of 10.10.10.50. Unfortunately, it is an older

application and does not support the use of DNS. Based on your study of name resolution,

list the options available for resolving this issue. Your answer should include at least two

technologies that would resolve this problem, along with details on how each technology

would be implemented.
