Hmm.. i am not sure if samba has changed yet, but it is a problem that it is
only registering one ip address with wins or broadcasts. Perhabps you might
be able to run 2 nmbd's... if you only need to allow smb from internal
hosts, then it should be enough to set your internal ip address as the first
in /etc/hosts, where samba gets is address from.
