Hey Bjørn,
Hey Jan,

If you bottom-quote and edit when you respond to me, it becomes that much easier to reply _in_ your email and address specifics there.

the traffic isn't send by a different subnet ...

eth1 = 192.168.0.100 ( default route via 192.168.0.150 )

eth2 = 192.168.0.200

both interfaces belonging to the same net (255.255.255.0) ...

Then you don't have a Samba issue, you have discovered what happens when you give a Linux box multiple interfaces on the same subnet. The IP stack implementation is good for a number of things, but gives interesting results in just such instances. http://pontus.ullgren.com/view/Multiple_interfaces_on_the_same_subnet looks like it describes how to solve it using iproute2, other solutions may be better. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=6676 gives a brief runtroügh of the problem, Google may give you more - I didn't spend much time finding references.

I stopped giving Linux boxes two interfaces on the same subnet a long time ago. :)

eth2 is not configurated with an default route. could this be the failure? (i don't think so because the route for the default gateway was set for eth1 only by /etc/conf.d/net)
You can only have one default route out of a computer. You can, however, use iproute2 to configure it to always respond to traffic through the interface it was contacted on, and lots of other interesting things. Highly recommended to look into.

i hope that could bring some light on this situation ...
The situation is nicely illuminated, yes. :)

When in fear and when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.
