Dual samba servers and Win2k and browsing?

[Thomas Cameron]

Bunny -

Don't believe for a second Microsoft's assertion that you "don't need WINS"
with Win2K or Xp or .Net.  It's simply not true.  Microsoft's DDNS
implimentation is pretty weak.  WINS is still needed.

I strongly recommend that you continue to use WINS.
