Hi Tracy,

  Since they are the ones that can't see the Samba box,
it's probably sufficient to add all three of their WINS servers
(or the broadcast addresses of their subnets) to the remote announce
parameter in smb.conf.  In a perfect world, the DC's would propagate
their information to each other so this wouldn't be necessary, but
this should compensate for that.

I got the following response from our Chinese site below,
(IP addressess changed to 'xxx'.)  Does this change the
solution or do I add all the WINS servers to the same
'remote announce' line?

"We have 3 Wins servers, the IP address is :xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy, and zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz.  But I think the problem
is our DCs can't replicate with some DCs in US. pls ask to check
the configuration of AD sites and services.
