[Samba] Name resolution for home network?

[Gilles]

Hello,

For my home network, now that SMBv1 and WINS are gone, I currently rely 
on etc/hosts for name resolution. I can confirm that a host is no longer 
found after I comment it out in Windows' 
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file.

I'd like to use a server instead. With just a couple of Samba servers, I 
don't bother with Active Directory, and just set them up as stand-alone 
servers.

Am I correct in understanding that I should install BIND on one of the 
two Linux hosts to resolve local names, and it will forward queries to 
my ISP's DNS server for unknown hosts (ie. the Internet)? Are there 
other options for name resolution?

Thank you.

PS : FWIW, here's my smb.conf:

=================
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
netbios name = LINUX1

security = user
;added, but makes no difference
server role = standalone server

map to guest = Bad User
;www-data used by Nginx
guest account = www-data

interfaces = 192.168.0.15/255.255.255.0 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255
bind interfaces only = yes

log level = 2

;with SMBv1 gone, WINS goes too
;wins support = yes
;local master = yes
;preferred master = yes
;domain master = yes
;os level = 255
;now using wsdd for share discovery
disable netbios = yes
client min protocol = SMB2_02
server min protocol = SMB2_02
smb ports = 445

;this avoids needless errors in the logs if you have no printer
printcap name = /dev/null
load printers = no
printing = bsd

[nginx]
path = /usr/share/nginx
;Thus no need for Unix/Samba passwords
guest ok = yes
writeable=yes
browseable=yes
;mask = mode
create mode = 0644
