Ahh, yes. This is a broadcast query but it's for the MSBROWSE name -- the
master browser which is necessary to retrieve the list of workgroups when
you use the "smb://" URL. The ONLY way to lookup the master browser is
with this special type of broadcast query on a NetBIOS over TCP network.
WINS does not maintain this information. On non-NetBIOS networks the
workgroup list is retrived by RPC or LDAP I'm not sure how exactly but
jCIFS doesn't support either method (yet).
