In theory, yes. However, a lot of programs would have to be ported before
A/UX was up to date enough to run Samba (Or most open-source programs for
that matter).

Right off the top of my head, I know A/UX would need gcc, make, SysV or BSD
init system, and a netlink socket (Raw access to the network stack).
Basically, you download the source to a program, run configure, then fix
whatever configure complains about. Source that can check and see if it will
run before you compile it, isn't that amazing?
