I already have all the clients using a WINS server.

subnet must be the gateway of that subnet or it
doesn't matter ?

In your case, I don't think it matters, since both addresses are of the same machine - you should be able to use either address for any client.


 I mean is there any problem if the
clients in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet have the WINS
server pointing at 192.168.0.1 ?

It is quite OK (and normally required) for some of your clients to talk to a WINS server that is on a different subnet - that's what IP routing is there for, to get packets from one network to a machine on another.
