You haven't turned on the Samba WINS server. Add this to `smb.conf':
wins support = yes
Also, if you use DHCP (highly recommended, if you can), add this to
`dhcpd.conf' so you don't have to specify it on your clients:
option netbios-name-servers a.b.c.d;
Finally, if you have any other Samba servers, remember to use the
`smb.conf' option:
wins server = a.b.c.d
