Hi :)

I'm plannung the following setup:

  * two subnets, say 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.2.0/24
  * one Samba server "sisyphos" should serve both networks, with two
different interfaces, say 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1.

My question is about name resolution: one server can only have one name,
obviuously. So, does the Samba WINS server recognize from which network
a request for the name sisyphos is coming and provide the client with
the appropriate IP address?  Or how else do I do about this? For
simplicity, I was planning on using dnsmasq instead of dhcpd and bind,
is that possible?

Thanks,

Andreas
