Thanks a lot John for take the time to make such precise and valuable answers. I am really impressed to read all your answers in this list, and I know all difficult and long it is, for answering myself about question on PostgreSQL in IRC and Mailing lists.

PDC means "Master Authentication Controller" - NOT "Master Browser". Please read my comments above very carefully.

WINS is your best friendThanks for this answers. I promise to read again and again about NetBios in all the HOWTOS of Samba. I now know that my problems could be solved using my Samba PDC act as a WINS server too...
As you may know, I use a VPN MPLS solution with my internet provider. He just told me today that routers are configured to block NetBIOS traffic by default. :-/
He's doing what needs to be done to allow NetBIOS traffic between two sites (192.168.0 where the samba box resides and distant 192.168.1..).
I'm doing tests now with Samba PDC acting has a Wins server too.
I'll put in this list my complete configuration and network schemes when all will work, in the case other persons would do the same.
> One needs to understand the NetBIOS
protocols to solve a NetBIOS problem - few TCP/IP admins care to do that!
I'll take the time to read more over about NetBIOS.
