nmbd tries to send from wrong ip

[Joel Hammer]

I am no expert on this but no one has responded yet so I will take a shot:
It says that the source IP is 192.168.0.1. So, that is your samba machine I
suppose.
It says the destination is 10.2.1.2. That is on the external network I
conclude.
What IP are you known by to the external network, eth1? This says you failed to
send a packet from 192.168.0.1, from eth1, which sounds right, since that is a private
number.
What do you see with ifconfig?
Can you interact with your external network properly otherwise?
BTW, is samba working properly despite this error message?
