+.B nmblookup

+.I broadcast address
+.RS 3

+The default behavior of nmblookup is to send the query to the broadcast
+address of the primary network interface.
+.RE
+
+.B \-U
+.I unicast address
+.RS 3
+
+Do a unicast query to the specified address or host
+.I unicast address.
+This is needed to query a WINS server.
+.RE
+
+.B \-M
+
+.RS 3
+Searches for a master browser.
+.RE
+
+.B \-R
+
+.RS 3
+Do a recursive lookup (needed to direct the query to the WINS portion
+of the server rather than the broadcast portion.)
+
+.RE
+
+.B \-S
+
+.RS 3
+Lookup node status as well.
+.RE
+

+.RE
+
+.SH EXAMPLES
+
+.B nmblookup
+can be used to query a WINS server (in the same way
+.B nslookup
+is used to query DNS servers). To query a WINS server,
+.B nmblookup
+must be called like this:
+
+.B nmblookup
+-U server -R 'query'
+
+For example, running '
+.B nmblookup
+-U samba.anu.edu.au -R IRIX#1B' would query the WINS server
+samba.anu.edu.au for the domain master browser (1B name) for the 
+IRIX workgroup.
+
+.SH VERSION
+
+This man page is (mostly) correct for version 1.9.16 of the Samba
+suite, plus some of the recent patches to it. These notes will
+necessarily lag behind development of the software, so it is possible
+that your version of the server has extensions or parameter semantics
+that differ from or are not covered by this man page. Please notify
+these to the address below for rectification.

+The original Samba software and related utilities were created by 
+Andrew Tridgell (samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au). Andrew is also the Keeper
+of the Source for this project.
