Samba Daemon needs to be restarted after suspend on a Dell Inspiron 6400 with Ubuntu Gutsy

[Luke12]

Binary package hint: samba

As the title describes. After a suspend to RAM I noticed that the samba daemon was still functioning and allowing me to see and interact with other computers on the local network - but my own machine was not available on the network itself. I solved this with a "sudo service samba restart", after which other people were able to interact with my box through the local connection. System is Gutsy 32 bit on a Dell Inspiron 6400.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Could you check if the smbd and the nmbd daemons are running after you've resumed ? Is there any error messages in the samba log files (/var/log/samba/log.smbd and /var/log/samba/log.nmbd) after you've resumed ?

I can confirm this bug.
I rebooted the computer at 08:36 and suspended it afterwards and woke it up at 08:40.
It seems that smbd doesn't restart after waking up after suspend.
there is an error message in log.nmbd at 08:40:42
see the relevant log files

Thanks for the bug report. The reason you were getting the error messages is that your network interfaces have not come up yet.

Thanks
