Good lead. Install WINS services until you get rid of all the 98 boxes, then enter the WINS info in the DHCP server or fixed IP info. Go around and force the servers to register their WINS info with nbtstat -RR, then have the Win9x workstations renew their info with nbtstat -R (these switches are case-sensitive). See if that helps. Alternatively, you can force an LMHOSTS that points to the PDC role master down to their workstations with your favorite deployment tool or script.
