You sure you weren't mistaking the logged on user of the machine as the
machine name?

It isn't going to give a duplicate name error if there wasn't a duplicate
name somewhere. If in doubt you can always delete "suspect" entries from
both WINS servers. It if is a legitiment entry it will reenter itself after
a while. Also keep in mind that any dialup or VPN users will also end up in
the WINS server if their dialup settings (DHCP or otherwise) include a WINS
server, so these users are not allowed to have their machines named the same
as any other machine on the system either.
