Appendix B The LANMAN.INI File 317
The [workstation] Section
The [workstation] section of the LANMAN.INI file configures the
Workstation service. For the purpose of discussion, the entries in this
section are divided into two types. The first type is default entries, which
are included automatically in the file. The second type is optional entries,
which can be added to the file or included as command options when
starting the Workstation service using the net start commands.
Default Entries
computername
Is a unique name that identifies the server or workstation on the
network. The Workstation service won’t start if the computername
matches any other computername or domain name on the network,
the username of any user currently logged on to the network, or any
message alias currently in use on the network.
Computernames can have 1–15 characters, including letters, numbers,
blank characters, and the following symbols:
! # $ % & ( ) - . @ ^ _ { } ~
You may assign a computername that requires a blank character to be
compatible with other types of networks, for example:
When referring to a computername that includes blanks in a
LAN Manager command, enclose the computername in quotation
marks (" "). For example, to assign the computername FINANCIAL 2
using the net start workstation command, type
domain
Sets the domain name for a group of computers. The domain
determines which servers and server resources are displayed in
LAN Manager lists. The domain entry also affects where broadcast
messages are sent.
The domain name cannot be the same as any computername on the
network, including your computername. The name can have 1–15
characters, including letters, numbers, and the following symbols:
! # $ % & ( ) - . @ ^ _ { } ~
If you want to always logon on without seeking a logon server, for
example, on networks where no logon server is present, specify
domain = standalone. (The search for a non-existent logon server
takes over twelve seconds.)
The default is DOMAIN.
