Bug Description
I have a wireless connection so, at boot - maybe also due to Lucid short cold boot - my network isn't up. This causes my nmbd process (a smbd related daemon) to return without letting me accessing my samba shares. In order to do this I have to manually run `sudo service nmbd start` and everything goes fine. Only a minor issue, I know, but for less experienced users it may cause troubles. (Actually, I had to ask ubuntuforums.org for a solution)

Scott, why do you think this is not a bug? The daemon fails to start at boot time and samba shares are not available. The nmbd daemon should start when network is up
