Multiple Network Interfaces with Samba

Samba Team member Tim Potter illustrates the use of Samba with multiple network interfaces. "Server and workstation machines that are running Samba often have multiple network interfaces. Sometimes it may not be prudent to allow Samba to be accessed over all network interfaces. This article describes the smb.conf parameters used to restrict Samba to only use particular network interfaces, and how to test this is actually working using some Unix command line tools."
