Ok, I've looked at this in the current Samba 3.0.5preXX code (SVN) and
here is the fix I think should work. It forced DNS and DNSFAIL names to
be removed from the WINS db immediately their timeout persiod expires and
not to go into the "tombstoned" state (where they would hang around for
another day).
Let me know if this fixes the problem for you.
Thanks,
Jeremy.
