please don't quote me on this and I am pretty new to this myself, when I
had
this problem I  was using a win2000 server as my wins server, and you
can go
in a delete all the old NetBIOS name.  So everything has to
re-registered
again.

Now if your samba server is running numbed then there is  are a few wins
parameters such a ttl that might be worth a look at.

Have a look at smb.conf man page under wins it should give you an idea
about
clearing the cached NetBIOS names.  As this was working up until you
changed
the ip  it seems as if your host is still registered against your old
IP.

Is it possible to reboot the server ????
