Talk:Peer Name Resolution Protocol
Appearance
So could this be implemented by other people or is M$ the only ones allowed to use the protocol? The bellman 09:14, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
They've patented it so only MS can use it in the US, but no one else needs it. BTW: My first thought after reading the articule was: "Oh so they've finally got the netbios name service to work properly, only took them 20 years". 86.16.135.53 09:21, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
Why does no one else need to use it? No one else outside the US or no one outside of MS? Is there a comparable solution for Linux and the Mac? Mk2337 05:34, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
- is zeroconf/Avahi comparable to this?--72.40.148.147 17:13, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
