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.

First of all, it doesn't MATTER what anyone thinks about your use case... If you have the use case, you have no need or obligation to explain or justify it to ANYONE. What I suspect if going on is that NetworkManager isn't starting. Try this as root: systemctl start NetworkManager The do ifconfig to see of the LAN interface started and got an IP address. That said, I do agree, it's probably not a very good idea to expose samba to the general internet unless you know exactly what you're doing... And I know some very large companies that do know what they're doing and they do it pretty routinely and still have issues.
