dhclient hook assumes wrong service name ("samba" instead of "smbd")

Bug Description

Binary package hint: samba

The samba dhclient hook script located at "/etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/samba" tries to reload the samba configuration by calling:
 [ -x /etc/init.d/samba ] && /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d samba reload

That doesn't work in Lucid because the samba service has been renamed to "smbd".

Also, instead of calling "/usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d" the appropriate upstart command should be used.
