[Samba] PDC/wins on multiple networks

[Daniel Müller]

Hi,
you have a (Samba)domain server and it is your wins?
You just to have an entry in your win xp clients wins-server:
YourSambaWinsServer.Enable Netbios over TCP
.
That is all. No: remote announce = 192.168.5.255/WORKGROUP 
192.168.7.255/WORKGROUP
This is working for me with 3 subnets.
