[Samba] Duplicate entry in macOS "Network" when using Samba 4.9.1 and avahi 0.7

[Steven Foucault]

Hi.
I configured a simple samba server. As I need this server to be available in macOS “Network” list, I configured avahi.
When I start smb.service and avahi-daemon.service I get two results in the “Network” section.
When I don’t use avahi I get no entry.
Why are there two entries and which best practice can I use to have only one entry?

Thanks!
Steven
