[Bug 1706990] Re: With samba installed on Kubuntu 17.04, nmbd.service causes a 10 second boot time regression

[Andreas Hasenack]

Thanks.

I'm not seeing anything *immediately* wrong, just that nmbd sometimes either can't find a network, or is getting errors trying to send packets to it. Like:
  Packet send failed to 192.168.0.255(138) ERRNO=Invalid argument
...
  send_netbios_packet: send_packet() to IP 192.168.0.255 port 137 failed
...
  reload_interfaces: No subnets to listen to. Waiting..

How is the network brought up on this machine where you experience this
problem? Is it wired, wireless, managed by network-manager or
/etc/network/interfaces, etc?

Regarding the non-child process, do you experience the same delay and
message from systemd about non-child process if you restart nmbd after
boot? Try something like this:

$ sudo systemctl status nmbd.service
(should print basically the same that you showed in your first comment)

Then restart it, and get status again:
$ sudo systemctl restart nmbd.service
$ sudo systemctl status nmbd.service

Thanks!
