This extension provides a "wins" module for NSS on glibc2/Linux. This allows you to use a WINS entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf for hostname resolution, allowing you to resolve netbios names via start unix gethostbyname() calls. The end result is that you can use netbios names as host names in unix apps. 1) run configure 2) run "make nsswitch" 3) cp nsswitch/libnss_wins.so /lib/libnss_wins.so.2 4) add a wins entry to the hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf 5) use it tridge@linuxcare.com
