You want some form of NBNS replication amongst the servers. Microsoft's
WINS can do this, but we haven't bothered to figure it out. There are
some limitations, I think.
There is some level of "demand" but it's not as high on the priority list.
A few folks have talked about it.
Anyone currently working on NBNS replication for Samba right now?
