thats to change the network device name

you dont need to change the workgroup in the box it runs via smb and will detect the windows network just fine

Hostname & Workgroup are two different things: hostname can be changed as Stanman explained; changing the workgroup goes as follows:
1- "init 4" in telnet to stop Enigma2
2- Open "smb.conf" located in '/etc/samba' with a suitable editor;
3- Change the name (default is "WORKGROUP") to something you want;
4- "reboot" in telnet to reboot the box.
Done

rob forgot to mention

etc/samba is a folder


once inside it you need to edit the file smb.conf



[global]
load printers = no
printcap name = /dev/null
guest account = root
log file = /tmp/smb.log
log level = 0
security = share
server string = Samba server %h
workgroup = WORKGROUP
netbios name = %h
case sensitive=yes
preserve case=yes
short preserve case=yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
preferred master = no
[Harddisk]
comment = The harddisk
path = /hdd
read only = no
public = yes
guest ok = yes
[Root]
comment = Everything - take care!
path = /
read only = no
public = yes
guest ok = yes
