I've been using Ubuntu for awhile now, but am still a noob. I installed Hardy 8.04.1 on an older PC. After the install, I setup my home network in NWmanager. I was able to see other computers on Windows Network. Then I wanted to share a folder. I installed sharing from folder properties. Now, my home network is gone. All that shows in Windows network is "Workgroup" My home network was gone from NMmanager. I re-entered it, but no change. I figure there must be a conf file somewhere that I need to edit, but I have no idea where to look. Any help will be appreciated. thanks,

I dug deeper into the forums - used Synaptic to install smbclient and smbfs - All is OK now.
