During translation of serverguide in Ubuntu Dapper package "ubuntu-docs" my
team found annoying error.

See item № 76 in Serverguide

Other important global policy settings include the <emphasis
> role="italic">server string</emphasis> which defines the NETBIOS server name
> reported by your Ubuntu system to other machines on the Windows-based
> network. This is the name your Ubuntu system will be recognized as by
> Windows clients and other computers capable of browsing the network with the
> SMB protocol. Additionally, you may specify the name and location of the
> SAMBA server's log file by using the <emphasis role="italic">log
> file</emphasis> directive in the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename>
> file.

The server string MUST HAVE ANOTHER DESCRIPTION!!!
For reference see "man smb.conf". There is RIGHT DESCRIPTION of this
parameter.

man smb.conf:
> server string (G)
>  This controls what string will show up in the printer comment box in
> print manager and next to the IPC connection in net view. It can be any
> string that you wish to show to your users.
>  It also sets what will appear in browse lists next to the machine name.
>  A %v will be replaced with the Samba version number.
>  A %h will be replaced with the hostname.
>  Default: server string = Samba %v
>  Example: server string = University of GNUs Samba Server
>


Please correct this bug before freeze of translation!
