Yes. Read this from MS:

May be the workaround is bonjour, avahi, mdns or ws-discovery.

Read this:

I have a working avahi setup on "Debian GNU/Linux 9.4 (stretch)"
with "Version 4.7.7-Debian" from this repository:
deb http://apt.van-belle.nl/debian stretch-unstable main contrib non-free

and this service file:

# cat /etc/avahi/services/samba.service 
<?xml version="1.0" standalone='no'?><!--*-nxml-*-->
<!DOCTYPE service-group SYSTEM "avahi-service.dtd">


<service-group>
  <name replace-wildcards="yes">%h</name>

  <service>
    <type>_smb._tcp</type>
    <port>445</port>
  </service>
</service-group>


Hope this helps.
I have not yet verified the Windows 10 1709 setup.
Takes some days to get it done.
