That assumption is not entirely correct. New daemons will see the
change immedidately. Already running daemons need a SIGHUP to reload

The configuration file, and any files that it includes, are
automatically reloaded every minute, if they change. You can
force a reload by sending a SIGHUP to the server. Reloading
the configuration file will not affect connections to any
service that is already established. Either the user will
have to disconnect from the service, or smbd killed and res-
tarted.
This is true for 2.2.x and 3.0.x
