Because: - nmbd is only needed for operations in some environments, so smbd should not block on nmbd being ready before starting - nmbd *must* wait for a broadcast-capable network interface to come up before it's started, otherwise it will fail - so it can't use the same start condition smbd currently does. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
