Actually it looks like this is only available for IRIX. I thought
it had been ported to other platforms as well. :-(

winbindd has the capability of doing hostname resolution for
NetBIOS names and can then be added to nsswitch.conf. Check out
the man pages.

Another alternative would be to look at integrating your
DNS server with nmbd, perhaps using the wins.dat (or whatever
the WINS db is backed up to now).
Running nmbd is an option, but according to the man pages, it only
maintains wins.dat and/or browse.dat if it's the WINS server and/or
browse master (respectively), of which there can only be one of either
on a network. If possible, I'd like to avoid requiring network
administrators to alter their network configuration.
