Keith,

It sounds like you have stopped your WINS server which previously was
running on one of your machines, with the other two pointing at it for WINS
services. Check "wins support = yes" in one machine's smb.conf, and that the
other machines have "wins server = x.x.x.x" set to point to the fist
machine. Your Windows clients also need to be pointed at your first machine
for proper browsing to work.

Hope this helps,

Simon
