AFAIK WINS is used for all our LAN-based networking lookups (NT 4.0

configured on the Internet gateway to lookup internet addresses.  I'll have
to investigate further but I may leave reverse lookups off for now.

Thanks for the help - it's like I'm talking to one of the authors of the
program or something ;-)
