    I just removed the readme.txt from the directory and that stopped the cron ORPHAN messages being written each minute. I couldn't find any GUI configuration tool on the system for setting the workgroup name and the master browser status in samba server. Is there one? Couldn't see any entries in the /etc/settings file either. Is it a case of editing the smb.conf file directly?

    I'm pretty sure you have to edit the smb.conf file yourself.

    Normally (on other linux systems), you would edit the smb.conf file, but there is a warning not to edit it on enigma, but edit the smb-user file instead. I'm surprised that there is no user GUI for editing simple things like group membership on the system. My home LAN does not use the standard Windows WORKGROUP name, but other samba servers (with kodi or libreelec/coreelec distributions) allow editing of the default name. There are several variants of the smb conf available on the system, ranging from totally insecure (the default) to fairly secure, but no documentation/guidance as far as I can see.
