Hello,

thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu.

The attached log files show this error when starting nmbd:
   Status: "nmbd: No local IPv4 non-loopback interfaces available, waiting for interface ..."

Could you please attach the following files to this bug report:
- /etc/samba/smb.conf
- /var/log/samba/log* (multiple files)

Also, after you have booted your system and logged in and have network access, could you please run these commands and show their output:

sudo apt update
sudo apt -f install

Thanks
