There is nothing in the above that tells samba to be a WINS server _or_ a
WINS client. If you want samba to be a WINS server then you need to add to
smb.conf [globals]:
wins support = Yes
If you want samba to be a WINS client then you need:
wins server = x.x.x.x
where x.x.x.x is the IP of the WINS server. If samba is the WINS server
then DO NOT add the "wins server =" line.
Since your samba server is in SHARE mode, why do you want it to register
as a domain controller? Suggest you set "os level = 20" - the default,
you
do not need to set it higher in most situations unless you want to be a
network logon server, which with SHARE mode security does not make mcuh
sense. Share mode scurity (ie: "security = share") is fully described
in
the smb.conf man pages.
You might also check the smb.conf man page for what "domain master"
really means.
I hope this helps.
