You could create an lmhosts file and put it on each of the Windows
boxes. Syntax is similar to the "hosts" file:
192.168.101.65 windows1
192.168.101.66 windows2
192.168.101.67 windows3
192.168.101.68 windows4
It does in c:\windows on Win9x machines, and in
c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc on NT/2000 machines.
The only thing is, it's a pain in the butt to keep them all current.
