[Samba] Cross Subnet WINS?

[George Kasica]

Not sure if this would apply but a while ago in a Cisco router world,
I need the command 

ip helper-address A.B.C.D <= Your SAMBA/WINS Server IP Address

to get he various wins boxes to be seen across the network. I put one
in for each WINS Server on each router and all was well.
