the other network users an access to this machine. This
machine is identified with this name in the network. Enter
descriptions of this machine in the "Description" field.

"Workgroup" so that the machines can communicate with
each other. This input field must be filled up. Ask for your
corresponding Work group name from your Network
administrator in case of a network spanning your firm/LAN.
