[Samba] WINS, must be master browser?

[Tim Smith]

i have an NT4 server and a linux samba server. the NT4 server is 
currently the WINS server. it works perfectly. i want to ditch it and 
use my samba server as the WINS server, however WINS simply does not 
work. could this be becuase the WINS server also needs to be the local 
master browser?

here is the global section of my smb.conf
[global]
       workgroup = laboratory
       os level = 2
       kernel oplocks = No
       security = user
       encrypt passwords = Yes
       guest account = Nobody
       map to guest = Bad User
in this config samba will not win browser elections. I know the NT4 
machine will win all browser elections, it's the only difference i can 
think of.
