look in .../samba/packaging/RedHat

It should give you enough info on how to build RPMS of samba.

I this script to build RPMS every night.  As yet I don't install them
automagically BUT there is no technical reason you can't.

------------
#!/bin/sh

SAMBA_VERSION="2.2.4pre"
SAMBA_RELEASE=`date +%Y%m%d`
PREFIX="/usr/local/src/"
SAMBA_SOURCE="${PREFIX}/samba"

set -e

if [ -n "$1" ] ; then
        set -x
fi

cd ${SAMBA_SOURCE}
if [ -z "$1" ] ; then
        cvs update -d -P
fi
cd ${PREFIX}

[ -d  samba-${SAMBA_VERSION} ] && rm -rf samba-${SAMBA_VERSION}

cp -a samba samba-${SAMBA_VERSION}

cd samba-${SAMBA_VERSION}/packaging
bin/update-pkginfo ${SAMBA_VERSION} ${SAMBA_RELEASE}
cd RedHat/
sh makerpms.sh
