[Bug 582376] Re: Samba (nmbd) fails to start at boot
I'm coming from bug #590862 which was marked as a duplicate of this bug. And I had been asked to outline my network configuration. No, there is no error message in nmbd.log at all. The reason for not starting is not a failure in configuration. It always starts properly when I launch it manually with service nmbd start. On that machine I am using just a static ethernet network configuration. I'll attach my /etc/network/interfaces file. As far as I can see the problem is that nmbd is simply not always started at boottime. Interestingly I found it to be running in rare cases. My guess is that there is a timing problem with the net-device-up signal. The major problem might be the lack of proper documentation for the upstart code (and an increasing ignorance of the upstart maintainers). -- Samba (nmbd) fails to start at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/582376 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Raffaele: this is not an upstart project issue, that's why Scott marked it as Invalid. That would rather be a bug in the samba upstart script (samba package), if any. The nmbd upstart script has start on (local-filesystems and net-device- up IFACE!=lo) so it should be started when another interface goes up.
