As I understand it, you need a WINS server for every subnet - we figured this out after the fact, so we now have 3 servers running Samba so that everyone can see all members of the workgroup (we are rolling out the domain slowly - in the meanwhile, we don't want to lose browse functionality). If anyone has a written proceedure for how to get this working with only one multi-homed server (does that mean one server with 1 network card for each subnet, or one card with 3 addresses somehow associated with it?) please post a link or email it to me.

Thanks

A single WINS server can work just fine across multiple workgroups and subnets. All that this required is to specify the WINS address on the client in the same way you'd specify the DNS address. That can even be done through DHCP.
