### configuration

Requires that smbd has been compiled with profiling enabled.  Also required
that `smbd` was started either with the `-P 1` option or inside `smb.conf`
using `smbd profiling level`.

This plugin uses `smbstatus -P` which can only be executed by root.  It uses
sudo and assumes that it is configured such that the `netdata` user can
execute smbstatus as root without password.

For example:

    netdata ALL=(ALL)       NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/smbstatus -P

```yaml
update_every : 5 # update frequency
```
