search for: ghostraider

OK I am new to Samba. I need a solution for a problem of long PC names and short AIX names. I cannot get a windows 98 PC connected to an AIX Samba server, I think because the PC name is too long. AIX allows only a maximum of 8 characters in a user name. My PC name is "ghostraider" and I cannot create a user named ghostraider in the AIX system. So when I try to connect, I get a Samba error telling me user ghostraider not found. How do I work around this issue? Thanks !!! Larry S.
