Hi John,

Nope.  The workgroup and Samba Domains have two different names.  However, I
believe someone set up another Samba Domain with the same name as the workgroup.
 So, just to make it less ambiguous, I'll give fake names: There is a Windows
workgroup called "ourworkgroup".  Someone setup Samba as a PDC for
"ourworkgroup" awhile back, but that is independent of what I'm working on.

Since then, I have set up a totally different server with Samba as a PDC for
"ourdomain".  It's on this machine that I'm getting log files for all of the
machines that are part of "ourworkgroup" as well as those for "ourdomain".

I hope that makes sense...
