In the simple case (as root) edit /etc/samba/smb.conf and add a line near the top like: netbios name = <NAME_OF_THIS_MACHINE> Then rcsmb stop rcnmb stop (This stops the deamons) Then testparm to see if you've done anything really stupid by accident. Then rcsmb restart rcnmb restart Should do it. This isn't usually necessary though. -- N. B.
