samba-libs-4.10.6-1.ppc
samba-client-4.10.6-1.ppc

AIX Toolbox packages delivers the files in /opt/freeware. And some creates symbolic links to /usr. 

So you should be invoking /opt/freeware/sbin/smbd

location of smb.conf file is same for both lpp and rpm (AIXtoolbox)

/etc/samba/smb.conf

root@njqaedi02:/opt/freeware/bin > ls -rlt /etc/samba/smb.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 11120 Oct 10 09:41 /etc/samba/smb.conf
root@njqaedi02:/opt/freeware/bin >
 

is this correct file or do we needs to use different location of smb.conf for AIX toolbox samba rpm version .

do we have any log file for smbd ,nmbd in /opt/freeware ?
