I am interested in knowing if my existing 'smb4.conf' file is still valid or do I have to make major edits of it to work with the newer version. I can find quite a bit about Samba and its improvements over the years, but hardly anything when it comes to how Samba, especially the newer versions, interact with FreeBSD. There appears to be forty or so patches applied to Samba 4.16.8. Obviously, Samba is not a simple drop-in application on FreeBSD.
