Network identification network name


This is driving me nuts! I have configured CentOS server to run on the network, everthing works fine and using samba have set in server setting Workgroup => Workgroup and Description => LinuxServer.

Restarted and the name appearing under WorkGroup on the network is something different. . . that is what I had set it at the beginning. How do you change it?

thanks in advance if anyone can shed some light on it
