[Samba] Workgroup name is too long

Hi All,

When starting samba I run into the following error:

Oct 11 07:21:12 mail1 nmbd[3665]:   create_workgroup: workgroup name 
LIVETECHNOLOGY.COM is too long. Truncating to LIVETECHNOLOGY.
Oct 11 07:21:12 mail1 smb: nmbd startup succeeded

This would be fine, but it seems to be followed by the following:

Oct 11 07:21:17 mail1 nmbd[3665]: [2004/10/11 07:21:17, 0] 
nmbd/nmbd_serverlistdb.c:write_browse_list(352)
Oct 11 07:21:17 mail1 nmbd[3665]:   write_browse_list: Fatal error - 
cannot find my workgroup LIVETECHNOLOGY.COM

It seems that the one is truncating the name and the other is not.

What does one do in this situation ?

Thanks
Warrick
