samba servers on remote segments

Concept question:

  In my configuration of 2 samba servers on remote segments;
  does a smbclient on one segment use the SSL (if configured)
  between the samba server to a client/server share on the
  remote segment.

  I think not, they do directed communication  to the machine
  with the share.  Thus bypassing the local sever after it gets
  the reference.  The SSL is for the SAMBA to SAMBA information
  transmition.

  I will need to go to a VPN router or  Linux / Solaris proxy
  get the communications protected.

  Any other options?
