Subject: [PATCH] Allowing setting and overriding parameters in smb.conf

Signed-off-by: Henrik Carlqvist <hc1245@poolhem.se>
---

It would be nice to be able to change settings in smb.conf from the qemu 
command line. A kludge to edit the qemu smb.conf of a running smbd process 
is described at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/QEMU , but IMHO my patch
provides a cleaner solution where parameters can be initially set to the
preferred values.

Best regards Henrik
