I have a RH5.2 Linux box running BIND-8.1.2-5 for my LAN, and it also
runs nmbd from Samba-1.9.18p10-3 as a WINS server.

Has anyone come up with a system for passing names discovered by the
WINS server to the DNS server? I'm thinking that I can parse
/var/lock/samba/wins.dat and generate an include file for my zone files,
then HUP the named. Anyone have a script that already does this?
