Hi. Sorry if this is a FAQ but I couldn't find the answer. What are the valid characters in a samba domain/workgroup name? Specifically, is the '.' character allowed? Would 'SBB.UVM.EDU' be a valid domain name? Or would a '-' or '_' be more appropriate? I tried to use '.' in a domain name once before. It didn't work so I reverted to a dot-free name. Later I found that there is a 15 character limit on domain names. I'm wondering if this was the cause of the domain name not being valid rather than the existance of the dot. Thanks. -- Steve Feehan
