Just an update. I've been fiddling with SAMBA and Windows 10 lately and finding I cannot connect to my Win10 Shares. Evidently this is due to SMB v3.11 in Windows 10 which isn't fully supported? So I decided to do some digging. We're currently using an EOL version of SAMBA! 4.5 is Discontinued and EOL as of 2018-03-13. Current Stable is 4.8. Is it possible to get a package bump to stable?
