Sorry for being not precise and thanks for making it clear! I meant share lists.

Great document, very detailed and very new.

Since I have 16 interfaces I am afraid to confuse my users with 16 virtual server
names. I am looking for using the interface or IP address the virtual server
is running on?
 
Samba3-HOWTO is talking about the %i macro on page 873 which seems to be
new in Samba3 (I am using Samba 2.2 from Debian Woody stable).
 
I think this macro is what I was searching for. I going to upgrade to
Debian Sarge, which in my test installations was terrific.
 
Good whishes to everyone
