Want some more, I happen to have my notes handy for cut-n-paste at the moment. 
This isn't the most uber-sercure config,  but it was how I initially got it working.

These assume your Samba WINS server and your DNS are on the same box.

DNS must allow updates from localhost -
In /etc/named.conf --------------------
acl safehosts {
  192.168.1.9;
};

zone "morrison.iserv.net" {
          type master;
          allow-update { safehosts; };
          file "morrison.iserv.net";
};

zone "168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
          type master;
          file "168.192";
          allow-update { safehosts; };
};
-------------------------------------
where 192.168.1.9 is the host allowed to send updates.  You will of course need
to change names, addresses, etc....

In smb.conf (Samba config file) -------
wins support = Yes
wins hook = /usr/local/samba/bin/dns_update
---------------------------------------
Do NOT set wins server and wins support at the same time.  One is for the server
(support = ) and one is for a client (server =)

The dns_update script is attached.  Again you will need to change addresses,
names, etc....  These three things and you should be rolling.

Why not do a presentation?  We haven't had a presentation on DNS or Samba in
quite awhile.

Oh,  and on the ISC DHCP server the following >>>entries<<< can tell a Win32
client the address to the WINS server,  Linux machines will simply ignore it.

 subnet 192.168.25.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
   range 192.168.25.100 192.168.25.199;
   default-lease-time   129400;
   max-lease-time       172800;
   option routers 192.168.25.2;
   option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.9, 204.177.184.10, 204.177.184.15;
   option domain-name "morrison.iserv.net";
   option nis-domain "morrison";
   option nis-servers 192.168.1.9;
   >>>>>>option netbios-name-servers 192.168.1.9;<<<<<<<<<<<
   >>>>>>option netbios-node-type 8;<<<<<<<<<<<
     }
