Hi,

would command line nmblookup work better instead? It is not wine
related, just samba-client package tool. Depends on what your windows
domain server is, but recent windows use normal DNS for service
discovery if the server allows it. Plain old dig may discover IP just
the same way.

nmblookup $HOSTNAME

should find any conflicting machine.

Cheers,
Petr
