domain master browser

[John E Hein]

I'd like my Samba server to be a Domain Master Browser for a
 workgroup (let's call it 'ENGINEER').

I set it up according to BROWSING.txt, but yet Windows NT/95 PCs on other
 subnets are unable to browse and see computers on this subnet
 (even if those PCs are also in the same workgroup).

It appears that the Samba is not acting as the Domain Master Browser
 ... at least as far as I can tell... and this is where I need
 help in verification of my setup.

192.207.166.161 (aka lorax) is the IP address of my samba server.

Below is the output of nmblookup with debug level of 5.
Notice the [slightly misspelled] warning:
Warning: inconsistant interface 192.207.166.161
After looking at this code in nmblookup.c/interface.c, I am convinced this
 is because of a minor bug in the code where the network mask is passed
 in as 0.0.0.0
So, I don't think that has anything to do with my problem...
 which again is that PCs in the same workgroup on other subnets
 don't see PCs on this subnet.
There is no NT domain named the same as the workgroup.  There is an
 NT server acting as a WINS server (199.170.224.6 as specified
 as the 'wins server').

Anyone have any ideas?  Do I need to have the WINS server be the
 domain master browser instead of Samba (BROWSING.txt seems to
 clearly indicate that Samba can be the Domain Master Browser).
