We visited this topic this past summer: https://sourceforge.net/p/backuppc/mailman/message/35912961/
Now that 4.1.4 is out, I can report the problem's still here. Server's OS has been updated to Fedora 27, with Samba version samba-common-4.7.3-0.fc27.noarch.
Behavior is as reported previously: full SMB backups (Win7 client) never complete; after approximately 24 hours, the server detects the failure, kills it, and starts over. New instance sometimes completes, but not always. In the latter case, it's killed and restarted.
