[Samba] Samba Mapped Shares Question

Hi All,

I have two HP-UX servers - one called Prod11 running HP11.11 with Samba 
3.0.7 and the other called Zarwin running HP11.00 with Samba 2.0.6. My 
username is a16609.

On Prod11 when connecting it comes back as "Prod11\a16609" and I can 
successfully get onto the share. However when connecting on Zarwin it 
comes back as "UK\a16609" and the connection fails unless I physically 
delete the "UK" bit and replace with "Zarwin".

How can I get the "Zarwin" bit to appear automatically just like the 
"Prod11" one does.

The smb.conf files on both Prod11 and Zarwin are the same (as much as they 
can be between the two releases).

Kind Regards - Mark Parsons.
