Taken from the Samba FAQ:

IP Address Change:
------------------

What to check:                                                                              
--------------                                                                              
1) Follow all instructions in DIAGNOSIS.txt from the samba docs
directory.

2) Locate you browse.dat and wins.dat files. They may be found in the
following typical locations:
/usr/local/samba/var/locks                                                          
/var/locks/samba                                                                    
/opt/samba/var/locks                                                                

If you can not locate where samba stores these files you can always run:
testparm | grep lock                                                                

3) Shut down samba.                                                                         

4) Delete the browse.dat and wins.dat files                                                 

5) Restart samba.                                                                           

6) Check that any files you deleted have been recreated.

7) Now follow DIAGNOSIS.txt again.
