235	Wait for network interfaces when starting samba daemons	dmik		"If one wishes to launch the samba server at machine startup he usually adds the ""smb.cmd start"" object to his Startup folder. However, once done, the server will sometimes fail to start with NMBD.EXE complaining in logs about being unable to find a subnet to attach to or something like that.

On my machine it happens quite often. The reason for that is that my network interface is configured via DHCP in background and sometimes this process is not yet finished when Startup items are executed. In the latest eCS 2.2 Beta II release the problem is even more noticeable since the ""dhcpstrt"" command used to configure ""lan0"" specifies the zero wait delay (-d 0) by default. it used to be something like -d 45 in the previous releases which caused the whole boot process to pause until ""lan0"" is configured. Looks like they changed it to 0 to remove this boot delay and this brings us problems with starting Samba."	defect	closed	major		Unknown		fixed
