Hello Eric,
After our telephone call, I had some thoughts about your problem.
First you can ensure that the DNS server which is used by the samba host
``knows'' about all your clients. Static and dynamic IP addresses should
be given by DHCP servers, which announce those leases to the DNS
server. Look for isc-dhcp3-server or internet software consortium. Then
the reverse resolving will work. Make sure that the client-hosts are
identified unambiguously. Have also a look to named - Internet domain
name server on how to setup name servers, possibly on different levels.
Then the hosts allow entry in your smb.conf file will work.
Secondly you could use (open)vpn connections for your clients. This
would be especially useful for road warriors. It is a bit of an overkill
for clients on the safe site behind the firewall. But the advantage
could be that you use one way of connecting for all the clients,
irrespective where they are located. With the right setup you can give
the virtuel tunnel devices IP addresses correlated with the host keys.
And in that way you can identify your clients unambiguously.
So there are solutions to your problem.
I hope this is helpful for you.
