Linda, if you are finding that nmbd is not starting on boot, have a look at:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/582376
[Samba (nmbd) fails to start at boot]
I had/have a similar problem with smbd on my laptop only in the reverse;
nmbd was starting, smbd was not. The samba logs were showing:
Unable to connect to CUPS server localhost:631 - Network is unreachable
So I modified my /etc/init/smbd.conf by commenting out:
start on local-filesystems
and inserting:
start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE!=lo)
and now both are working fine on reboot.
