We had quite a headache when someone upgraded a freenas box at work which resulting in a major samba jump. I wasnt directly involved but I think it there were lots of stuff with extended ACLs that needed fixing. Don't take the upgrade lightly and read all the upgrade notes before attempting. Definitely ask in the samba forums for advice.
