+ * Discussion...
+ *
+ * This module implements WINS failover.
+ *
+ * Microsoft's WINS servers provide a feature called WINS replication,
+ * which synchronises the WINS name databases between two or more servers.
+ * This means that the two servers can be used interchangably (more or
+ * less). WINS replication is particularly useful if you are trying to
+ * synchronise the WINS namespace between servers in remote locations, or
+ * if your WINS servers tend to crash a lot.
+ *
+ * WINS failover allows the client to 'switch' to a different WINS server
+ * if the current WINS server mysteriously disappears. On Windows
+ * systems, this is typically represented as 'primary' and 'secondary'
+ * WINS servers.
+ *
+ * Failover only works if the WINS servers are synced. If they are not,
+ * then
+ * a) if the primary WINS server never fails the client will never 'see'
+ * the secondary (or tertiary or...) WINS server name space.
+ * b) if the primary *does* fail, the client will be entering an
+ * unfamiliar namespace. The client itself will not be registered in
+ * that namespace and any names which match names in the previous
+ * space will likely resolve to different host IP addresses.
+ *
+ * One key thing to remember regarding WINS failover is that Samba does
+ * not (yet) implement WINS replication. For those interested, sniff port
+ * 42 (TCP? UDP? ...dunno off hand) and see what two MS WINS servers do.
+ *
+ * At this stage, only failover is implemented. The next thing is to add
+ * support for multi-WINS server registration and query (multi-membership).
+ *
+ * Multi-membership is a little wierd. The idea is that the client can
+ * register itself with multiple non-replicated WINS servers, and query
+ * all of those servers (in a prescribed sequence) to resolve a name.
+ *
+ * The implications of multi-membership are not quite clear. Worth
+ * trying, I suppose. Changes will be needed in the name query and
+ * registration code to accomodate this feature. Also, there will need to
+ * be some sort of syntax extension for the 'wins server' parameter in
+ * smb.conf. I'm thinking that a colon could be used as a separator.
+ *
+ * Of course, for each WINS namespace there might be multiple, synced WINS
+ * servers. The change to this module would likely be the addition of a
+ * linked list of linked lists.
