Edit /etc/nsswitch.conf (I think that's the right file off the top of my head), and add wins to the lookups. I think it's like:
"hosts: dns files wins"
then, make sure your samba config file has the right wins server set. i.e. /etc/samba/smb.conf add or set the following lines:
name resolve order = host wins bcast
wins server = 128.206.2.72 128.206.2.73


(someone else can check those wins settings - I think that's accurate off the top of my head).

while you can get this info from WINS, incorrect WINS settings will lead to extraordinarily long timeouts.
