Be sure to have the NetBIOS tuning parameter NBRFCWINSREG set to 1 if you want Advanced Server for UNIX to register names with WINS servers.

If the local machine is running the Advanced Server for UNIX 4.0 WINS service, it is recommended to configure both primary and secondary WINS to point to this WINS, i.e. to the local machine.
