Samba's nmbd should provide the WINS service for listing hosts.  Try
pointing your Win95 boxes at the Linux box for WINS.

A different question about Samba: does anyone know how I get an OS/2
Warp Server to show up in the browse list of a Samba server?  I can
conenct to the server OK (with smbclient and smbfs) and `smbclient -L
Win95Machine -U %' lists the Warp server, but not `smbclient -L
SambaMachine'.
