Once you have installed WHS 2011, you cannot change the workgroup, so you are stuck with WORKGROUP.

This may not be an issue in the majority, but I for one use a different workgroup for all computers on my network.

Therefore, to enable a different workgroup for WHS 2011, you have to do it during the install:

When the setup gets to the part where you are asked to name it, simply hit SHIFT-F10

you'll get a command prompt.

Type "control system" and press enter

use the system control panel that pops up to change the workgroup name but leave the server name and everything else alone.

close the window, don't reboot the system. Continue with the setup, and once it's all going you'll have that workgroup name and the certificates in certificate services will be named properly too


See this link for further details.
