Networking - Naming a Computer

[PT]

In the Windows 98 Networking setup screens, one can name the computer and
its workgroup by entering the name and workgroup in the appropriate boxes on
the "Identification" tab.

Where are these items entered in WindowsXP networking?

It looks as though this page displays the information. But I don't think
you can set or change it here.
