Fedora core 8 and samba

Asked by billyboy71 in Samba File Server, Fedora Linux, Ubuntu

Hi ,
I am using Fedora Core 8 with Samba 3.0.28a-0 .  

When I type smbclient -L fedora -N, I get the following:


Anonymous login successful
Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.28a-0.fc8]

        Sharename       Type      Comment
        ---------       ----      -------
        IPC$            IPC       IPC Service (Samba 3.0.28a-0.fc8)
Anonymous login successful
Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.28a-0.fc8]

        Server               Comment
        ---------            -------
        MYSERVER             Samba 3.0.28a-0.fc8
        PETER-UBUNTU         peter-ubuntu server (Samba, Ubuntu)

        Workgroup            Master
        ---------            -------
        WORKGROUP            PETER-UBUNTU


I was wondering why am I getting the PETER-UBUNTU when I am listing my local shares. There is a PETER-UBUNTU on my VM. But why am I picking it up even when I turn off my Ubuntu system. I can figure out that the first part means my Fedora workstation has a default workgroup called "WORKGROUP". and that the  "sharename" $IPC means that I am not sharing anything. But how would you interpret the rest of the information?

Can someone tell me how to interpret the results that I am seeing.

Thanks.
