> - "IFACE=eth0": shouldn't "net-device-up" wait for all interfaces to
have an ip address ?

>>No. That's the 'static-network-up' event, mentioned above. 'net-
device-up' is a per-device event.

I have another question then, for which device does the service wait when 
'net-device-up' is used without arguments ?
(as it is in the default smbd.conf)

>>No, that's definitely wrong and will cause 'service nmbd restart' to hang. 
Good point.

>>And I don't know why this would be necessary on your system.

My server correctly boots without "started nmbd" during the 3/4 test reboots I 
made. However, I kept that line 
"just in case" I got into a racy situation during reboots in the future 
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/596064)

>>Regardless, beyond 14.04 the system init is handled completely
differently (via systemd instead of upstart) so this bug will no longer
apply in 16.04 LTS.

That's (very) good to know, thanks for your answers !
