Hai Mark, 

I see the bugreport for this is still untouched. 
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11998 

Is vfs_full_audit not an option? 
with %I you can log the IP address of the client machine. 
But i dont know if that wil work of if vfs_full_audit hase that option.

With something like this. 
full_audit:prefix = %u|%I|%m|%S 
full_audit:failure = connect
full_audit:success = connect disconnect 

And maybe you need more options in failure and success. ( man vfs_full_audit ) 
man smb.conf for all the variable substitutions

Greetz, 

Louis
