Hello,

I have an AIX 7.2 which was upgraded from 6.1 recently and this server has some samba shares using samba version 3.5.4. These are working fine and the existing installation is in /opt/pware64. I'm trying to upgrade samba to a later version and while keeping the old version I used yum to install 4.16.8 and it got installed into /opt/freeware. I can use the net ads join command to join with the domain successfully even with the new version but the shares are not accessible. I didn't make any changes to the smb.conf file and below is what I have in the smb.conf file. Any help to get this working on 4.16 would be really appreciated. 

[global]

        workgroup               = DOMAIN

        security                = ads   

        realm                   = DOMAIN.COM

        server string           = Samba Server %h

        idmap gid               = 10000-20000

        idmap uid               = 10000-20000

        domain master           = no

        encrypt passwords       = yes

        local master            = no

        log level               = 7 

        max log size            = 50

        name resolve order      = wins lmhosts host bcast

        password server         = * 

        preferred master        = no

        map to guest            = never

        restrict anonymous      = 2

Thank you

Moving from 3.5.4 to 4.16.8 is a big jump. You need to run testparm to check the correctness of smb.conf file. 
Also check the community link for major changes happened in Samba 4 version --> https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_4.0_Features_added/changed
