pretty sure thats configurable in SMB.CONF

Researched this before I emailed originally, this doesn't do it. Even if I specify only the subnet I want in all these places, the behavior is unaffected.
The reason I posted to CentOS and not SAMBA is that from what I can tell, the decision as to what address to return seemed to have more to do with the OS.
Does anyone on this know how the OS determines which IP address to choose when asked for its address when it has multiple choices. From the best I can tell so far, it seems to be the last adapter to start, the last one listed in ifconfig.
I have only assumed it is the address that matches it's host name, which is why I always configure that in the /etc/hosts file.
