Some changes since the original Jonathan Perkin article:

• Samba is included in the main pkgsrc repository
• SMF manifests are included

In short:

1. pkgin -y install samba
2. Edit /opt/local/etc/samba/smb.conf for your installation
3. svcadm enable svc:/pkgsrc/samba:nmbd
4. svcadm enable svc:/pkgsrc/samba:smbd
5. svcadm enable svc:/network/dns/multicast:default
