on the wins server:
===========
[global]
        
        interfaces = eth0 lo
        bind interfaces only = Yes
        name resolve order = wins lmhosts  bcast host
         wins support = Yes


on the other Linux machines
=================
[global]
          name resolve order = wins lmhosts  bcast host
          wins server = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX <-insert real ip here.

thats it; simpler than setting up bind; i don't know about tinydns.
