Connecting to Workgroup domain
So, keep in mind that the workgroups/domain are not necessarily controlled by the samba server (should it be?

Network setup as both domain and workgroup - does this make sense?
If I go to a client and send a test message using the "Workgroup" option, it goes to all connected to that workgroup/domain. Unfortunately, WinPopUp does not exist on the server as far as I can tell. Why doesn't it broadcast to all that logged-in to that domain? Is there something I'm missing?
