I've been using a samba server on a multia running NetBSD-1.3, without
problems now for several weeks. Clients are two Windows'95 machines. 
I got the same compiler warnings of course, but as things work for me
relatively well these warnings may not be your actual problem. Fixing the 
warnings is a good thing no metter what, so...

BTW, I didn't get WINS to work though. I tried, spent a night on it and came
to the conclusion that configuring a DNS server is probably a lot easier 
than the WINS stuff. I looks simple at first glance, but when it didn't
work I used tcpdump and debuglog of samba to see what was going on.
You *don't* want to know. It was a nightmare, of the worst kind. I'm not
joking. These mortal eyes have seen....
