[Samba] Samba version and ports

[Don Meyer]

James,

IIRC, the CIFS protocol (as implemented by Microsoft) requires 
listening ports 445/tcp & 139/tcp, with 137/udp & 
138/udp.  Configurable ports would tend to make interoperability 
moot, hence the lack of port configuration info in the config file.

For version info, I'd suggest restarting the running smbd daemon, 
then looking toward the end of the /var/log/samba/log.smbd file for 
the restart banner, which should indicate the version.
