Name Resolution Problems

[Ed Presutti]

Is there any way to make BIND use WINS with Samba? I'm running 2 Linux boxes
with BIND 8.2.2P5 and our organization is wanting WINS lookup, they're
complaining about the fact that workstations don't appear in DNS. I'm
wondering if there is a way to make BIND use WINS as a secondary lookup
source like Wintendo DNS does. I just don't want to have to get rid of BIND
on behalf of the fact that our programmers want reverse lookup to work on
PC's! Thanks in advance.
