I am running RedHat V9.0 with SAMBA v2.2.7a-8.9.0 on both servers that are
involved.

We have a fairly small network ( 500+ Nodes ) ( Mixed environment Windows 2K
- XP ).

SMB/NMB server. ( RedHat V9.0 / SAMBA v2.2.7a-8.9.0 ) acting as stand-alone
server:         ( wins support = yes ) ( IP = X.X.X.2 )

NMB server              ( RedHat V9.0 / SAMBA v2.2.7a-8.9.0 ) configured as
a wins proxy.
                        ( wins support = no, wins server = X.X.X.2, wins
proxy = yes ) ( IP = Y.Y.Y.3 )

If I have a machine with samba as in NMB Server above, should it forward
wins requests from Y.Y.Y.? subnet to the wins server at X.X.X.2?

In order to test, I use the following command on a computer that is not
running the smb or nmb daemon:

nmblookup -RU X.X.X.2 -s /etc/samba/smb.conf machine    ( succeeds )
nmblookup -RU Y.Y.Y.3 -s /etc/samba/smb.conf machine        ( fails )
