I'd route, and use udp forwarders to forward Netbios Name Broadcasts
across the wan. You could also setup a WINS server and point everything at
that, but.... YUK....

configure with this command:

ip forward-protocol udp netbios-ns

You may also want to use these:
ip forward-protocol udp netbios-dgm
ip forward-protocol udp netbios-ss

depending on what you need to do. I'd use only as many of those lines as I
needed to get the job done.

There's a ton of different ways to do this... bridging with bridge filters
is another.
