he's telling you that you want a shared wins server because samba
doesn't support exchange of data between wins servers - whether with
Windows based wins servers or with samba based wins servers. Thus the
remote announce which should be targeted at the broadcast address of
remote subnets. The next problem then is your routers which may be
blocking broadcasts from remote subnets - I think if you think about
this, you can see why some might want to prevent this. Check the methods
used in running the tunnels between the subnets and see if you can
selective 'unblock' broadcasts.
