popup message says" \\localhost is not available. " then goes on to say "you were not 
connected because a duplicate name exists on the network"  
 
When checking the network neighborhood from my winXP boxes, the linux box shows as 
"localhost" in the computer name field.  The redhat 9 GUI Samba configuration does not 
have a variable field for computer name, nor do I find one when manually reviewing the 
.conf file.  
 
I also tried editing the etc\hosts file on the XP box to associate a name other than 
"localhost" with the linux boxes IP address and still get the error.  Is this an issue 
with the computer name and if so, where do I name the linux box?
