[SOLVED] Changing WORKGROUP

[mk01]

@Skywatch

yes, smb.conf is base template and is obliged to changes with xbian-package-samba package changes. it's nice to see users read # comments too

for runtime parameters not configurable via "net" you are free to use /etc/samba/user.conf. this file will not be touched and can re-define global parameters already found in smb.conf.
(I will update the comment to reflect the user.conf availability)

so just put

Code:

[global]
workgroup = NOTWORKGROUP

in that file.

you can check the actual seen and used smb configuration with

Code:

testparm -v

it will show you the workgroup is no more WORKGROUP but the name you define.
