No. Your gateway is some kind of Cisco box; it's definitely not an NT
server running WINS.

The official student WINS servers are

acs-wins.its.yale.edu 130.132.143.43 (primary WINS server)
acs-loses.its.yale.edu 130.132.143.42 (secondary WINS server)

It's pathetic how happy it made me that ACS agreed to my naming scheme for
them. :) acs-loses doesn't actually run these days; it's there as a
potential backup.
