[Bug 823878] [NEW] smbd failed to start after system restart

[Vasya Pupkin]

Public bug reported:

Sometimes smbd daemon failes to start after system restart. As a result,
fileserver is not accessible after power failure and requires someone to
fix that manually, which sometimes is very hard to do. Today this
happened again and here's what was in logs:

It's a server, network is configured via DHCP, there is no Network
Manager installed, and according to log, it was configured just a second
after smbd failed to start:
