Peter-- Not sure if you need to upgrade or not; our RHEL 4 Samba PDC is using Samba 3.0.21c. You should see if Dag Wieers' repository maintains newer copies first; it makes upgrading a lot slicker and easier. If not, you should be able to get newer copies from samba.org and openldap.org. Running copies of any software that doesn't come directory from Redhat basically invalidates your support contract for those items. If you set up Samba from anything besides the Redhat-official RPM, you'll probably have difficulty getting support on it from them.
