According to this the problem is that I don't have a IPv4 non-localhost network insterface, which is true according to ifconfig:
# ifconfig eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr xxxxxxxxxxxxx inet6 addr: abcd::abcd:abcd:abcd:abcd/64 Scope:Link
This inet 6 address is a public internet address?
I don't know, I think probably not. It is a link-local address if I remember correctly. I cannot check, because I am at another system now. It looked something like fe80::..........
Then it has neither IPv4 nor IPv6 addresses.
I can understand you obscuring an internet address, but not a local address.

Again, is this a local network address, or a publick internet address?
This is a working public IPv4 address, like 80.249.170.197. Not a local network address (like 192.168.0.15).
The same applies to openSUSE 12.2 but there is no IPv6 address line there.
Well, you don't have a LAN. I do not see where are you going to use SAMBA.
I have an old Windows installation in virtualbox. Occasionally I have to print from there with my local printer. Also I have a samba shared folder to copy files between Windows and openSUSE host. I used samba to share my printer and the shared folder. This works in openSUSE 12.2. virtualbox offers a vmnet0 network interface but it's not started until virtualbox is started.
