Your DNS hostname is filled in for you by default.
 NetBIOS alias??”Enables you to set a way of referring to a host computer (an alias) that
is different from the host??™s TCP/IP DNS name.
 Server string??”A string of text identifying the server. This name appears in places such
as the printer comment box. By default, it says Samba and the version number.

Mask. Or, you could identify a network interface (such as eth0 for the first Ethernet card
