5Please make sure you're running 4.6.4/4.5.10/4.4.14 or up, to avoid the critical CVE-2017-7494 vulnerability ("SambaCry"). – David Refoua May 25 '17 at 23:25

And 4.13.17, 4.14.12 and 4.15.5 for CVE-2021-44142, and surely others in future. – msanford Feb 02 '22 at 02:28

Use the smbstatus command from the shell to get an output like this Samba version 3.0.25b-1.el5_1.4

16+1 but I would run
smbstatus --versionotherwise you'll get a lot of output on a busy server. – 3dinfluence Mar 12 '10 at 21:37

idk, I just tried this command and it gave me the Linux kernel version if you run it from Ubuntu 16.04 – Gabriel Fair Apr 20 '18 at 14:29

1This command gives the Samba version and not the SMB version. Already upvoted. Maybe someone is misunderstanding the difference between the smbd (Samba daemon) and SMB (Communication protocol). – Terrance Jun 21 '18 at 03:09

I just tried in Debian 9.13 and both
smbd -Vandsmbstatusshow exactly the same version, this case Samba version 4.13.13-Debian – LincolnP Jun 08 '22 at 10:22

For the Linux Samba version type :
$ smbstatus -V
Version 4.6.14-SerNet-RedHat-16.el7
But I guess your domain controller needs is the SMB Protocol version you are using, you can find it by typing :
# smbstatus -p
