Should technically work, assuming the fileserver has an ip on each subnet.
Jeremiah's right, though, the destination should always be the fileserver's

Add a log destination before your"accept all through eth0" rule, and take a
look at the logged data -it might give you a clue about what traffic is
actually looking like.
