Some progress. I can at least browse to the shares (but Gnome's Network
GUI still fails to mount the actual folder). The setting that worked are
the following.
interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 172.16.15.0/24 eth0 wlan0 tun0
# samba host not visible on VPN client without the following
remote announce = 172.16.21.255

#for security (allow only local, wired lan and VPN clients)
hosts allow = 127.0.0.1 192.168.0.0/24 172.16.15.0/24
hosts deny = 0.0.0.0/0


Now I am dealing with the problem of Network GUI failing to mount the
windows share.
