Last major update to my home box, systemd broke Samba. No changes were 
made to the Samba configuration; systemd simply refused to start the 
daemons and refused to tell me why. They started correctly when I 
started them manually. They started correctly after I removed systemd 
and its dependencies and installed sysvinit. So yes, systemd can cause, 
and has caused, downtime for me.
