Yes! It can be done.
You must create one master server configuration. It will create the master
server as seen in the Windows networking browser. In its smb.conf file you
will have something like:
[global]
...
workgroup = BIGBIRDS
netbios name = ALBATROS
netbios aliases = CRANE MUGABIRD
...
include = /etc/samba/smb.%L.conf
Then for each alias (CRANE and MUGABIRD) you would create
an /etc/samba/smb.'name'.conf file like:
/etc/samba/smb.crane.conf:
---------------------------------
[global]
netbios name = CRANE
....
[share1]
...
/etc/samba.smb.mugabird.conf:
-------------------------------------
[global]
...
netbios name = MUGABIRD
...
[share2]
...
I hope that is clear enough.
