Oh... That odd bit that says that RA should be set (RFC 1002, section
4.2.15) is in the section that describes the REDIRECT NAME QUERY RESPONSE,
which no one implements (for good reason).
T
RFC 1002: 4.2.1.1:
RA3 Recursion Available Flag.
Only valid in responses from a NetBIOS Name
Server -- must be zero in all other
responses.
..so Microsoft are getting it wrong. Not surprising, I suppose. The
RFCs are contradic
If nmblookup is modified to print these flags, someone
needs to make sure these descriptions get in the man page.

Sorry. Just to be clear, the older version of Samba that I'm running
returns RA TRUE *if* it is running as a WINS server.
I don't know what a newer version of Samba does, but I doubt this has
