workgroup

[mattfed]

when adding a new computer to my small office network, I
misspelled the workgroup name. I changed that and the
network works fine now, but the misspelled workgroup
still is there when I look at my "Microsoft Windows
Network". You cannot access this because it is not there
(it has been renamed). How do I remove this dead
workgroup?

Since there are no computers in the workgroup, it will automatically
disappear after a while. There's no other way to make it happen.
