Henrik,

I'm CC'ing this to the main samba mailing list.

A single Samba cannot currently exist in 2 separate domains.  What I
would do would be to setup two samba server's on the same machine and
have all the shares listed in a file and for each server include that 
file.  See the "interfaces =" and "socket address =" parameters. This
should give you the behaviour you wish.

I can send an example if you need it.

I would run a testparm on this, but I'm thinking that the name that nmbd
will use when it starts will be main netbios name.
