I'd look at the code to see if the expansion for %h takes into account the
destination IP# address connected to.

If you can't patch it to do what you want, you might need to run two sambas,
each with its own smb.conf file bound to a single interface.  If you're
using an OS with "real" oplock support and reasonable locking, then things
should be fine, since cross-smbd locking will just work.
