[Bug 1009291] Re: Samba doesn't start automatically in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

[RobertMatijasec]

I'm not sure when wlan0 gets set. I don't know how to check for this
offhand, but if you let me know what to look for I'll let you know. That
being said, I haven't changed whatever the default setting is for the 12.04
alternate ubuntu install cd. I just have a wireless card in the machine and
never hook up the network card. I think the other thing it keys off is some
file systems flag and I don't know when this is valid either--ie. before or
after user login.

even still, you'd think I wouldn't have to manually kick it off after user
login. It's like the wlan0 doesn't ever set the networking flag.
