Members

• dwNameSpace
  Specifies the namespace or a set of default namespaces to which this service information applies.

  The following table shows the constant values you use to specify a namespace.

  Value	Name space
  NS_DEFAULT	A set of default name spaces. The set of default name spaces typically includes all the name spaces installed on the system. System administrators, however, can exclude particular namespaces from the set.
  NS_DNS	The Domain Name System used in the Internet to resolve the name of the host.
  NS_MS	The Microsoft name space.
  NS_NDS	The NetWare 4 provider.
  NS_NETBT	The NetBIOS over TCP/IP layer. The operating system registers their computer names with NetBIOS. This name space is used to convert a computer name to an IP address that uses this registration.
  NS_NIS
  NS_SAP	The NetWare Service Advertising Protocol. This can access the Netware bindery, if appropriate. NS_SAP is a dynamic name space that enables the registration of services.
  NS_STDA
  NS_TCPIP_HOSTS	Lookup value in the <systemroot>\system32\drivers\etc\posts file.
  NS_TCPIP_LOCAL	Local TCP/IP name resolution mechanisms, including comparisons against the local host name and lookup value in the cache of host to IP address mappings.
  NS_WINS	The Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) namespace.
  NS_X500	The X.500 directory service namespace.
