Good questions. I have little test programs that I've
been using, but NetBIOS is hard to test without
knowing something about your network configuration, so
they're not much use for netapi32/tests.
I don't know of any programs that work now that
didn't, except what I'm working on: I'm trying to
implement the Network Neighborhood. I've been
tweaking WINE's SMB code to use Netbios() rather than
implementing the netbios-over-tcpip stuff directly.
That work isn't done yet, watch this space for more :)
There was an article a while back linked here about
some HP management program (for their NAS appliance)
that didn't discover their box under WINE because of
lack of NetBIOS support. I suspect this may now work,
but I don't know.

Needed? No, should work as-is. You may configure
some things in the registry if you need to. Many are
configured in the same way as Win98's reg, but not
all. I didn't know a good place to document these;
comments in winedefault.reg???

You're very welcome :)
