You have to make sure that you include the following:
smb.conf.DOMAIN1
bind interfaces only = yes
interfaces = 127.0.0.1,
smb.conf.DOMAIN2
bind interfaces only = yes
interfaces =
E.g.,
smb.conf.DOMAIN1
bind interfaces only = yes
interfaces = 127.0.0.1, 192.168.1.2/24
smb.conf.DOMAIN2
bind interfaces only = yes
interfaces = 192.168.2.1/24
It doesn't matter which of the two has the loopback address,
127.0.0.1, so long as only *ONE* of them has it.
In addition, you will probably want to assign a
netbios name =
with the appropriate hostname to each config file and insert the
hostname (as appropriate) into the
lock directory = /usr/local/samba/var//locks
and, lastly, the log file path
log file = /usr/local/samba/var//log.%m
