I tried searching the Interwebs but did not find any useable information. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

You could check with netstat -lpn if samba is listening on tcp/636 or 
not. If yes you should put the right certificates/keys in 
/usr/local/samba/private/tls (if you installed samba to /usr/local/samba)
