OK, while I am not using evolution or the latest Samba version, I do
have a friend who is, using samba4-devel that is. I just contacted them
and they said that what you are experiencing is not the norm. They
suggested the following.

1) Completely remove all versions of Samba currently on your system.
Something like:

	pkg_delete -dfv samba*

That should remove all remnants of Samba from your system. You may have
to manually remove, or at least rename the smb.conf file. If there is a
stale start up file in the 'rc.d' directory, remove it. Either delete or
move all of the files in the '/var/log/samba' directory. You want fresh
output.

Now, do a clean install of "samba4-devel-4.0.0.a8_2". Be sure to run
'make config' first to insure you have it configured the way you want.
Next, config Samba using any method you prefer. Personally, I like
using SWAT; however, that is up to you. Now use the start up script to
start the program. You might want to do a reboot to insure it starts
correctly on start up.

If you are still experiencing difficulties, try posting to the Samba
forum and contacting "timur@FreeBSD.org" the Samba port maintainer.
