[klug] WIN7 Desktop to Ubuntu Workgroup Samba

[John]

Hello, I am trying to get away from a Microsoft desktop. I have Ubuntu
16 installed on an old HDD. I have most of my hardware and applications
running. When I installed 14 I was connected to my workgroup. Since I
installed 16, I have not been able to even see the workgroup except
"Windows Network"

If this post is not relevant to this list, please let me know where I
may find help.

Thank you

Has your "workgroup" name changed? or have you not edited
the /etc/samba/smb.conf file?
