[Samba] Win support=yes samba 2..28a

[Sundaram Ramasamy]

Hi,

I am running samab 2.2.8a on Redhat 9. in my smb.conf file I set wins
support =yes. But this machine is not reponding wins request.

No process binding on wins port.

Here is the smb.conf output:

# testparm | grep win

        name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast
        max wins ttl = 518400
        min wins ttl = 21600
        wins proxy = No
        wins server =
        wins support = Yes
        wins hook =

#grep win /etc/services
nextstep        178/tcp         NeXTStep NextStep       # NeXTStep window
wins            1512/tcp                        # Microsoft's Windows
Internet Name Service
wins            1512/udp                        # Microsoft's Windows
Internet Name Service

I would except some process on 1512 wins port.

Any input on this?

Thanks
