  add entries for server min/max protocol in /var/ipfire/samba/settings.
This settings may be dangerous but sometimes they are needed so it will
not showed in the cgi.

Hello Arne,

This patch does not make sense to me because of two reasons:

1) There is no UI to configure this

2) Why would a user want to change this? You stated they are dangerous. Why would a user be qualified to change this? If the goal is to enable SMBv1, then I would suggest to rather have a checkbox with a big big warning sign that someone is doing something really really stupid.

If you just want to have a place to add some custom configuration options, why don’t we add a smb.conf.local file?

Best,
-Michael
