26 This is pretty much a complete rewrite of the earlier code. The main
27 aim of the rewrite is to add support for having multiple wins server
28 lists, so Samba can register with multiple groups of wins servers
29 and each group has a failover list of wins servers.
31 Central to the way it all works is the idea of a wins server
32 'tag'. A wins tag is a label for a group of wins servers. For
33 example if you use
35 wins server = fred:192.168.2.10 mary:192.168.3.199 fred:192.168.2.61
37 then you would have two groups of wins servers, one tagged with the
38 name 'fred' and the other with the name 'mary'. I would usually
39 recommend using interface names instead of 'fred' and 'mary' but
40 they can be any alpha string.
42 Now, how does it all work. Well, nmbd needs to register each of its
43 IPs with each of its names once with each group of wins servers. So
44 it tries registering with the first one mentioned in the list, then
45 if that fails it marks that WINS server dead and moves onto the next
46 one.
48 In the client code things are a bit different. As each of the groups
49 of wins servers is a separate name space we need to try each of the
50 groups until we either succeed or we run out of wins servers to
51 try. If we get a negative response from a wins server then that
52 means the name doesn't exist in that group, so we give up on that
53 group and move to the next group. If we don't get a response at all
54 then maybe the wins server is down, in which case we need to
55 failover to the next one for that group.
