Interesting.  Thanks for the link, Craig, but I think it is puzzling and 
interesting that the behavior of our Samba server appears to contradict 
what is written in the documentation that you are referring to.  I have no 
idea why that would be, not being a Samba expert, but I can tell you for 
certain that I do indeed have both the 'wins support = yes' and 'wins 
server = <ip address>' commands in my smb.conf, and nmbd is running just 
fine and everything is working.

Best wishes,
Eric
