If you take a look at /etc/ppp/options you can specify a 'wins-addr' option which should give your win95 dialup clients the right WINS addresses. Last time I checked NT had some problems with getting the assignment, but that might have changed since I last used it (about 1 year ago). You can also specify the dns addresses in a similar manner -- take a look at the file. The advice given in a follow-up to your email about having the clients log on to the NT domain is also correct (as is the rest of it -- this might just help make things smoother).
