Two things spring to mind: What's the default workgroup named used if you don't specify one? And, you can browse through different workgroups. -- (This box runs Centos 5.0, my others still run FC 4, 5, 6, & 7, in case that's important to the thread.)

1) I suppose that the default workgroup in Samba is MYGROUP: am I wrong? 2) I doubt that from a Windows machine joining WORKGROUP as workgroup you can jump in workgroups different from WORKGROUP. But I am not an expert of workgroupping in Windows :-) 3) If I remove the ; from the workgroup line I can see the correct name of workgroup and afterwards it may be changed (and change is recorded in samba.conf)!!! -- Antonio Montagnani Skype : antoniomontag
