I am unsure how to do this. How would I change the workgroup name of

workgroup and I want it to point at Canine as the network I want to see
this folder. Once I figure this out I am good to go and thanks to
everyone.
If you are referring to the samba workgroup 'workgroup' and instead wish
to changed the workgroup name to 'Canine', add the workgroup name to the
127.0.0.1 line in /etc/hosts. For example, I use 'mshome' instead of
'workgroup', so I modify:
$ gksudo gedit /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
to
127.0.0.1 localhost gl.mshome
gl is both my username and host name. You'd modify to:
127.0.0.1 localhost <name>.Canine
save the file and restart the broadcast daemon:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/nmbd restart
or
$ sudo service nmbd restart
Your samba shares should now be in the 'Canine' workgroup & your Windows
user(s) should now be able to attach.
