I have compiled the latest source acquired from the SAMBA Web page to run on
AIX 4.2. For some reason my WINS client just isn't working. I verify that
the NetBIOS names and IP addresses are in the NT WINS server's tables. I
verify that the WINS server's IP address is appropriately configured in
smb.conf. I run testparms and all is OK. I executed two commands with no
change in output. The commands were:
nmblookup -d 9 -B 167.132.136.187 ncsc_9a221
nmblookup -d 9 ncsc_9a221
The output of each command is as follows:
Initialising global parameters

I am quite perplexed, and would greatly appreciate assistance pertaining to
how to get the WINS client function working.
