Hello Olaf, I'm sorry for replying so late after your bug report. It apparently escaped our attention. With so few elements, I'm not sure wecan do much. Is there a possibility that you increase the log level to 3 in smb.conf and then check nmbd.log in order to see if there is more information? Usually, nmbd failing to start is due to network interface missing. Is there a reason for the network to be up late in your virtual machines?
