This doesn't answer your question, but here is my experience with Samba
and FreeBSD. There was long time that the port samba-dev failed if it
detected that you were using FreeBSD 4.x  If you do get samba compiled
you will have a further problem of needing a filesystem that supports
access control lists. Overall samba 3.x.x really likes FreeBSD 5.x much
better than 4.x.

Personally, I would stick to Samba 2.x.x if i needed to stay with
FreeBSD 4.x
