Naming a Computer on a Network

[pt]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)

I have a small MS workgroup using WinXP Pro SP2. It was set up by someone
else - no longer here.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I can't locate, in the Network Connections
area of Control Panel, the spot where the computer is ginven a description
and a network name.

Please advise
