Are the above options really what you want? Try to leave them out and if you
have a wins server add:
wins server = <wins server ip address>

You only need the remote stuff if you are on a WAN. If you are this would
have been nice to know ;-)
If you are on a WAN make sure the above remote-IPs have really been elected
as browsers in the remote network.

And no, you don't need winbind if you already have unix users (or NIS
users).
