problem with name for file sharing

I have a problem now where I need to change the name localhost on my father's Linux box to something else because when I try to access the file sharing part this is the error I get:
Windows Explorer
\\Localhost is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network
resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access
permissions.
You were not connected because a duplicate name exists on the network. Go to System
in Control Panel to change the computer name and try again.
OK

 

I tried changing the computer name on the Windows side with no joy.  So I am assuming I want to change the linux side.  How is this done I forgot the command?
