[Samba] samba4wins - all ok but how to use nmblookup from my PDC?

[Pablo Chamorro C.]

I installed samba4wins on two of my Fedora Core 3 servers (from src rpm), 
on one PDC (samba 3.0.21c) and on one standalone server without samba, in 
order to test samba4wins.  I think I managed to install and to setup 
properly the software but it seems nmblookup is not working on the PDC 
samba:

[user]$ nmblookup '*'
querying * on 192.168.19.255
name_query failed to find name *

>From any other linux, including the standalone machine nmblookup '*' 
works. I followed the instructions given on samba4wins-1.0.1-HOWTO.txt.

On the other side, I am having similar samba4wins records both for user 
machines and for users!  Is this ok? Please look below.

Thanks

My setup:

1. My PDC, eth0: 192.168.19.9 ("pdc") for the PDC, and 192.168.19.109 
(pdc-wins) for samba4wins:

in /etc/samba/smb.conf:

    netbios name = pdc
    workgroup = group
    bind interfaces only = yes
    interfaces = 192.168.19.9
    socket address = 192.168.19.255
    wins server = 192.168.19.109

in /etc/samba4wins/samba4wins.conf:

[globals]
    netbios name = pdc-wins
    workgroup = migrupo
    interfaces = 192.168.19.109
    bind interfaces only = yes
    log level = 4
    nbtd:disable_broadcast = yes

2. in the linux without samba: eth0: 192.168.19.7 ("standalone") and for 
samba4wins: 192.168.19.107 (standalone-wins)

[globals]
    netbios name = standalone-wins
    workgroup = group
    interfaces = 192.168.19.107
    bind interfaces only = yes
    log level = 4
    nbtd:disable_broadcast = no

3. in the PDC /var/lib/samba4wins/private/wins_config.ldb:

# returned 2 records
# record 1
dn: CN=STANDALONE-WINS,CN=PARTNERS
distinguishedName: CN=STANDALONE-WINS,CN=PARTNERS
objectClass: wreplPartner

pushUseInform: 0

# record 2
dn: @BASEINFO
distinguishedName: @BASEINFO

4. in the standalone server /var/lib/samba4wins/private/wins_config.ldb file:

# returned 2 records
# record 1
dn: @BASEINFO
distinguishedName: @BASEINFO
sequenceNumber: 6

# record 2

Sama4wins is generating this kind of records:

# record 12
