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

[Serge Hallyn]

Thanks for reporting this bug.

You say that only wlan0 is up.  Is wlan0 set up to start at boot, or
only at user login?  Samba should start as soon as a network interface
other than loopback comes up.

If wlan0 is coming up at boot, then is samba trying to start and
failing, or is it not trying to start?  (The smblog.txt unfortunately
doesn't tell me when those failures happened relative to other system
activity)

Title:
  Samba doesn't start automatically in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  smbd and nmbd never get launched by upstart in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS after installing samba with apt-get.  Samba works fine but must be kicked off by the user or worked around by running the server out of some other init script. 
  The system in question here only has wlan0 set and eth0 is not being used.
  samba version 3.6.3.
