My wish is to start Samba when the network card is inserted or when power resumes.
And stop Samba before standby, or if the network card is removed, as it was done by cardmgr and /etc/pcmcia/network script.

Right now there are no hotplug events relating to power management, though it might be a good idea to add that capability sometime.

However, events on device add/remove should work just fine.

I have added this in net.agent:

unregister)
exec /etc/init.d/smb stop
;;

and got this:

Sep  5 17:06:27 bcv66vbb /etc/hotplug/pci.agent: PCI remove event not 

supported

Likely not to worry.

Sep  5 17:06:27 bcv66vbb smb: smbd shutdown failed
Sep  5 17:06:28 bcv66vbb smb: nmbd shutdown failed

What is wrong ?

For smb start, I do not see any error message, but smb is not started

What should be the correct method ?

Hmm, I'm not sure ... but shouldn't you also have added some logic to start SMB after the "ifup"? I could easily believe that shutdown failed because you never started it...
