Resolve hostnames with NetBIOS instead of mDNS on Linux

Immediately after installing Debian 9 Stretch, the avahi-daemon has already been installed, so it is working to send a ping between Linux with avahi-daemon installed on each of them. For example, when there is a named 'alice', $ ping alice.local returns a normal response. I want to do the following things: - I want to resolve names of Windows from Linux, but I do not want to install the Bonjour or something like that on Windows. - I want to resolve names with NetBIOS (WINS) instead of mDNS. - I do not want to add a suffix such as .local in the name. So I deleted avahi-daemon and installed winbind. # dpkg --purge avahi-daemon libnss-mdns # apt-get install winbind libnss-winbind And, added setting to use 'wins' in /etc/nsswitch.conf. e.g. hosts: files dns wins With the above setting, $ ping mywindows will not respond. However, $ nmblookup mywindows can successfully get the IP address. Previously, when I was using Debian 8 Jessie, it should have been successful, but using Debian 9 Stretch will not be my expectation. Is there something missing?
