[Bug 125687] Re: Samba does not start on boot.

[Peter Cordes]

> Upstream has made some adjustments to nmbd in samba 3.0.28a so that it
will wait when the interfaces have gone away, but I don't know if this
affects the behavior on startup.

 This doesn't solve the problem for the ntpdate init script, for
example.  There's a general problem that numbering scripts with numbers
higher than rcS.d/S40networking doesn't mean that dhcp will have an IP
by the time they run.

 That's why I wrote that little init script that waits until it can ping
something before it returns, so the firestarter and ntp init scripts
could work properly.  If this problem goes away for samba because of
something samba-specific way, this bug should be duplicated or a new one
reported.
