Title:
  netbios name truncating doesn't work

Status in samba:
  Unknown
Status in samba package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in samba source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Which leads to empty machine names see
  https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10896, that's fixed in the
  current version but we should SRU the fix

  * Impact

  Some samba machines have no names

  * Test Case
  - install samba
  - edit smb.conf and set   netbios name = XABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
  - start nmbd
  - look what is the "Samba name server" in the log

  * Regression potential
  Check that machine names are correct
