I ran samba on OpenBSD for about two years. I never had a problem
compiling it from source, without any modifications or having to add any
--with or --enable statements with ./configure. To upgrade it, I just
compiled and installed again, which replaced all the files with new ones.
(Backup your smb.conf file first, obviously.)
To run samba, just add a couple of lines to the
rc.local file:
/usr/local/samba/bin/smbd -D
/usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd -D
(Your path might be different. I believe this was the default install
path.)
That will run samba as a daemon that is started by init. Then the
smb.conf file defines exactly what you want to do with samba.
