<para>This specifies the IP address (or DNS name: IP
address for preference) of the WINS server that <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> should register with. If you have a WINS server on
your network then you should set this to the WINS server's IP.</para>
<para>You should point this at your WINS server if you have a
multi-subnetted network.</para>
<para>If you want to work in multiple namespaces, you can
give every wins server a 'tag'. For each tag, only one
(working) server will be queried for a name. The tag should be
separated from the ip address by a colon.
</para>
<note><para>You need to set up Samba to point
to a WINS server if you have multiple subnets and wish cross-subnet
browsing to work correctly.</para></note>
<para>See the chapter in the Samba3-HOWTO on Network Browsing.</para>

<value type="example">mary:192.9.200.1 fred:192.168.3.199 mary:192.168.2.61
<comment>For this example when querying a certain name, 192.19.200.1 will
be asked first and if that doesn't respond 192.168.2.61. If either
of those doesn't know the name 192.168.3.199 will be queried.</comment></value>
