    We run a number of RHEL 4.8 and RHEL 5.4 Samba fileservers that are
    attached to a Windows Server 2003 Active Directory domain.
    Everything was running fine until a Windows Server 2008 domain
    controller was added into the domain.[snip] We’re running the latest
    Red Hat Samba v 3.0.33-0.18.el4_8.1 and v3.0.33-3.15.el5_4.1
    packages. I’d really prefer to stick to the Red Hat rpm’s rather
    than compile from source.


I think you're out of luck.

You really need at least the samba 3.2 series; I was hopeful that one of rpmforge, epel or elrepo would provide that but none of them do :-(

You'll have to build samba yourself, either directly from the source or persuading the Fedora SRPMs to build.

Actually, for RHEL 5, the "samba3x" packages provide Samba v.3.3 and can be used in place of the original "samba" rpms. They're in the Supplementary channel. I'm not sure whether RHEL 4 has them.

Note that between 3.0 and 3.3 there are some minor changes in syntax in the smb.conf file, as well as some differences in the sense of some of the parameters, so you may not want to switch to samba3x without a little testing.
