Run ipconfig (windows nt, 2k,etc) or winipcfg (win 9x) from a command
window and see if it gives you a "WINS SERVER" ip address.

If it doesn't, look in the network settings and change the wins server
from "Allocate WINS through DHCP" (or something like that) to the IP
address of your Linux/Samba/Wins machine.

You can try nmblookup //linuxmachinenetbiosname to see if Samba knows
what's going on.

| We did enable the wins support. Could this be a bug in the wins
