Thanks Michael and Moritz for your responses. It's clear from both your comments that remaining on Buster with an updated Samba 4.9.5 is not a sane option. I think upgrading our Samba servers to Bullseye and then Samba from backports (or Michael's repo) is the approach I'll take. Hopefully the Samba upgrade will be relatively painless. :-). Thanks again.
