Sorry about the late answer and missing info. The W7 is using both,
i.e. wireless and wired.

Strangely enough, it works now. Here is what I did:

The interface parameter; I put the 10.* before the 192.* and stopped
and started the samba-service. After that, the wired card were
utilized when I copied to and from the share.

interfaces = 192.168.0.232 10.0.0.2 127.0.0.1 changed to interfaces =
10.0.0.2 192.168.0.232 127.0.0.1

(I tried this earlier, but it seems that /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba
restart did not properly re-read the configuration.)
