So I was able to try the suggestions you gave me. I pretty much had to, because OSX samba client connecting to UNRAID 6.10.0-rc2 and the finder in OSX was locking up.
The results are that things are working again, not sure how long...Speed is still slower than normal, but at least it's working.
In my opinion, I think unless it was absolutely necessary, I think unRAID should have kept the AFP protocol capability for legacy users. I realize that there are security updates all the time and things need to move along, but do we have to force everyone to move forward all the time. I have systems in place that cannot be upgraded for legacy reasons and personally I think SAMBA sucks big time.
It would be interesting to know what other people's experiences are.
Thanks for your help.
