        I'm sure you could install it with```
        pkg_add -r

            pkg_add -r samba
            

            That should work. I know right now that pfsense 1.2.2 has outdated repository sources. You may have to runpkg_add ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/All/samba-3.2.8.tbzand install all dependencies the same way like```
            pkg_add ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/All/samba-smbclient-3.0.34.tbz

            Or you can update the repositories sources so that```
            pkg_add -r samba
            ```will install everything you need.
            
            EDIT: Just upgrade to 1.2.3 RC1 and run pkg_add -r samba
