The
socket
address option dictates which of the addresses specified with the
interfaces parameter Samba should listen on for connections. Samba accepts connections on all addresses specified by default. When used in an
smb.conf file, this option will force Samba to listen on only one IP address. For example:
interfaces = 192.168.220.100/24 192.168.210.30/24
socket address = 192.168.210.30
This option is a programmer's tool and we recommend that you do not use it.
