[SLUG] Samba Node Name

2004-07-14 Thread Peter Rundle
Sluggers,
does anyone know if it's possible to override the nodename that appears 
in the network neighbourhood for a samba server?

Server string in smb.conf changes the description, but what about the 
actual node name?

Cheers
Pete

In global, add the following
netbios name = server-name-here

This is from looking at my smb.conf file on my Samba server.
