You are using the wrong mailing list. This one is for people who develop 
Samba, not those who administer it, and there is not as much overlap 
between those two groups as you might imagine.

Try asking on the Samba list at

https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

They love answering questions like this.
