No UI to set the Samba workgroup

Issue #156 resolved
IanSav created an issue

There does not appear to be a UI to allow users to set their active Samba workgroup.

The default workgroup is set to "SettopBox" which is NOT the Microsoft default of "WORKGROUP". To change/fix the workgroup a user must access the Linux prompt and edit the file "/etc/samba/smb.conf" and change the "workgroup =" line manually.

If the workgroup is not set correctly it could make the T3 invisible or harder to find in a network scan.

    Pretty rough implementation.

    'server string = ' is not the server name, it is the server comment field.
