[Bug 462169] Re: nmbd dies on startup when network interfaces are not up yet

[Nick_Hill]

Myself and a friend have both had to use Samba with IP addresses, until
I found that by restarting nmbd, name resolution works again. (Ubuntu
10.04).

My machine automatically logs in. I don't use the network manager
applet; I have DHCPd running on my server and use bridging.

Perhaps nmbd needs to start and continue irrespective of whether there
are broadcast capable interfaces, and link to the interfaces when up.

I'll work around this bug by writing a script to start nmbd late in the
boot process.
