My question to the original poster is, why on earth would you have
smbd bound to an interface of a real world routable ip. If this host
has internal networks that need samba, then by all means only bound
samba to those internal networks, and disable it from completely using
the outbound interface. If you must use this outbound interface,
atleast filter it to the only ip addresses/networks that need to use
it.
