[Samba] WINS Clutter

Thanks...I found the file and edited it appropriately.  Although...these
Windoze systems aren't noticing the changes.
Do you recall if there is a local Windoze file I should flush or change
regarding WINS data?

The wins info is in a text file called wins.dat you could try editing that.
