[CLUG] Samba WINS client functionality

[Collins_Paul at emc.com]

Yep, that's browser elections.  I don't have access to the DNS.  Plus the
DHCP aspect makes DNS useless (no DynDNS).

WINS fills a need; AFAIK without it you cannot have cross-subnet browsing.

Oh well.  I'll just change the hostname and not shut it down again.
