[global] bind interfaces only = boolean
If set to YES, shares and browsing will be provided only on interfaces in an interfaces list (see interfaces). New in Samba 1.9.18. If you set this option to YES, be sure to add 127.0.0.1 to the interfaces list to allow smbpasswd to connect to the local machine to change passwords. This is a convienence option; it does not improve security.
