[Samba] [Wins on NT server] Ping/ssh a smb client with Linux client

[okparanoid at free.fr]

Hello world !

I have a Debian client in a NT server domain and try to configure it.
Other computers in the NT domain can view me and ping me by my hostname.
Howewer i can't resolve the wins name of the other client on the domain.
Here is the global section of my smb.conf.

I would like to ping and ssh other computers by their hostname. Haved i forgot
something ?

thanks for your help...

P.S : Can you confirm that to do this i need install both samba server and
client that i made.
