Yes.

After restarting nmbd and smbd:

=================================

However the problem only occurs when I use the following (valid syntax
and configuration) in smb.conf:
=================================
interfaces = 127.0.0.1 172.26.62.112
bind interfaces only = Yes
=================================
If I comment the above out and reboot Samba is live but it's not the
desired configuration.

Also even the more general syntax (again not the desired configuration) fails:
=================================
interfaces = lo eth0
bind interfaces only = Yes
=================================

Seems like a timing issue with Samba being brought up to early. Had a
similar issue with an earlier Ubuntu release that was never resolved.
