Section of interest:
28.10.2. Starting Samba
To enable Samba at boot time, add the following line to /etc/rc.conf:
samba_enable="YES"
To enable Samba4, use:
samba_server_enable="YES"
To start Samba now:

# service samba start 

Starting SAMBA: removing stale tdbs :Starting nmbd.
Starting smbd.


Please add the below:
To start Samba_Server now:
# service samba_server start

Performing sanity check on Samba configuration: OK
Starting nmbd.
Starting smbd.
Starting winbindd.

This will make the docs more one-stop help for those setting up samba server, rather than looking for forum help because they are only interested in being server and don't have samba-smbclient installed, which is what the current handbook shows how to start.

Thank you!
