Is this possible?

I've got an interesting little set-up that I can't figure out.  I'm hoping
someone here knows what I need to do.  Basically, I need to be able to restrict
home directories by interfaces.  Here are the details:

My samba box NFS mounts /export/home from a Sun box onto /home. My samba box
has multiple interfaces (virtual LANS, but we can think of them as separate
NICs (at least I do!)).  Let's say I've got two vlans, 192.168.1.0/24 and
192.168.2.0/24.

If I set up the /home shares as separate shares, I can restrict access based on
interfaces.  The problem with this is that the people on the .1 network can see
(but not access) the shares on the .2 network.

If I set up the /home shares as [homes], the user will see only their share. 
But this has the following problem: A user from network .2 can logon to the .1
network and see his share.  This is not a Good Thing since the neworks are
owned by two different companies.

So, in a nutshell, I need to one samba server to have shares that are invisible
on one network but browseable on another *and* to restrict access of [homes]
directory by network.

Any ideas?  Any one?  Any one?  Bueller?
