[Samba] A little problem

[Joel Hammer]

Don't make your box a wins server. That might be bad.
In your smb.conf, have a line like this:
wins server = yourwinsserver
I use my netbios name but you may have to use the ip address. Don't know.
Have you fooled around with nmblookup (man nmblookup) to see how things are
doing looking up netbios names?
