I see in the WebGUI you can tell which interface SMBServer can use... but I don't think it is a specific interface?
For example. I have a LAGG with em1,em2,em3 and em4. RoudRobin all together. But it's call OPT3. In the SMB Menu for the Interface, I dont' see OPT3, but there is OPT Only.
So how do you tell it specifically to use only OPT3 interface?

Why do you want it to only listen on the one interface?

Re: SMB Bind to specific interface? Possible?
Yes, you can, since Nas4Free has a place where to put custom additions to to the smb.conf so you can tweak Samba settings that aren't in the GUI.
Something like this in the global settings area:
bind interfaces only = yes
interfaces = lo eth0
Do add localhost also, not having localhost in there can affect functionality. Obviously not "eth0" in your case, use your actual interface name. Check the smb.conf documentation online for more info, you can specify IP address and such as well here or write it in several different ways.
Should work. Never tried it. Not sure if it's the right thing to do with your setup. Just saying you can specify interfaces for Samba to listen on specifically.
