Changing the workgroup/domain name
using TELNET or BRCONFIG or a web
browser
If you are unable to use the BRAdmin application or a web browser, you can use
TELNET or the BRCONFIG Remote console program (BRCONFIG requires the
IPX/SPX protocol to be installed on your PC).
When you are connected to the Print / Fax server, enter the default password
"access" in response to the "#" prompt. Type in anything in response to the
"Enter Username>" prompt, you will then be at the "Local>" prompt.
Now enter the command:
SET NETBIOS DOMAIN domainname
EXIT
Where domainname is the name of the domain or workgroup that you are on. If
you are not sure what your domain name or workgroup name is look in the
Identification tab in your Windows

95/98/Me/NT
®
4.0 network applet.
You can also use a standard WWW browser to change the NetBIOS name, to do
this connect to the Print / Fax server using its IP address and then select the
"Configure NetBIOS" option from the Print / Fax server configuration screen,
enter you workgroup/domain name into the "Domain Name" text box. Make sure
you submit the changes.
