Change<\/span> workgroup<\/span> & server string:<\/p>\n Server string is the comment part of the Network name, by default it is something like samba xx. xx x. After change<\/span> of the server string, it could take a while before the new comment is seen because this part has been written to windows registry. <\/p>\n If you make the changes in the \u201csmb_anonymous_head.conf\u201d, it will work fine. After each reboot this file is the base for smb_anonymous.conf, and again this is the base for smb.conf. After each reboot the last two file are rewritten.<\/p>\n >>Warnings:<\/p>\n Linux is case sensitive.

Use of the vi-editor could lead to corrupt files if you are not used to vi. So always make a spare copy before you edit a file, or practice on a new empty file first.<\/p>\n
