I've been using Fedora Core 4 for a home server and to call it from the

I just installed Fedora 7 instead and here I can't access it by its name
(I use its static ip address instead) until I graphically open up the
samba menu. I can /etc/init.d/network restart and restart samba to no
avail but as soon as I go to the samba configuration and edit anything
(I add and then delete a space in front of the workgroup name), the
server is now accessible by the other networked machines by its
hostname. The same router is in place for both fedora systems and their
hardware is the same.
Is there a way I can avoid having to use the GUI menu to enable the
hostname? Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Thanks,

SAMBA on F7 requires that you start two daemons, nmb and smb.
