Bug#501075: [Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#501075: Bug#501075: samba: Daemons don't start on boot because network is not yet up

Quoting Juergen Stuber (juer...@jstuber.net):

Sorry for coming back very late on your bug report. I'm currently
triaging bugs in the samba package.

I was puzzled by the interfaces lines in your smb.conf file:

   interfaces = 127.0.0.1/8, 10.158.2.0/24
   bind interfaces only = Yes


Is the server IP address *really* 10.158.2.0?

I'm not entirely sure (from the manpage) that an IP/mask element in
interfaces can have the network address as IP address instead of the
server address in that network.

Also, I'd suggest you to remove the comma a separator and only use
spaces.

I'm not sure if that could be the cause of your poblemdo you still
experience it, by the say? Up to now, we had no other report of samba
not starting after booting up the machine so I'd suspect the problem
to be local to your setup, in some way.

It is not allowed.  The allowed options are: an interface name, an IP
address, an IP/mask pair, or a broadcast/mask pair; using network/mask is
not allowed and is not guaranteed to work correctly.

So this could have some influence here, though I'm not sure exactly what.
