Samba 3.6 is completely unsupported, in addition to having tons of patches
It also causes kernel panics on some platforms when sendfile is enabled.
Example:
https://github.com/gnubee-git/GnuBee_Docs/issues/45
I have reproduced on ramips as well as mvebu in the past.
Samba 4 is an alternative available in the packages repo.
cifsd is a lightweight alternative available in the packages repo. It is
also a faster alternative to both Samba versions (lower CPU usage). It
was renamed to ksmbd.
To summarize, here are the alternatives:
- ksmbd + luci-app-cifsd
- samba4 + luci-app-samba4
