Changing Domain Names

Hi,

 

I've started using Kontact on my desktop and really like it. What I would like to do is set up a KGroupware server on my desktop so that I can update my laptop over the network. Luckily there is a Mandrake Wizard to this, but I've got a problem. It says that "domainname" is not equal to "localdomian" and that I should use DrakConnect to change this. Well thats fair enough, but how? I've been playing around with DrakConnect and some of the other Mandrake tools but have yet to found a setting that works. So how do I change the "localdomain" and/or "domainname"?

 

thanks

 

Running:

MDK 10.0 RC1 AMD64 + Updates

Sorry, I didn't really phrase my question properly. My problem isn't really how to change, but what am I changing and what to. To run the KGroupware server I need "localdomain" and "domainname" to be the same. I think that is localdomain I've been changing (not 100% sure) but because I don't know what "domainname" is it hasn't really helped.

If your box's name is mtweidmann.local.network, the domain name of your network is local.network.

The only other domain name I know is in Samba::smb.conf:

 

[global]

# 1. Server Naming Options:

# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name

  workgroup = GROUP
