I don't use samba on Redhat (removed it before I even got that far), but 
  quotas work in Mandrake, on XFS (8.2 and later, AFAICR) and ext2/ext3 
out-the-box. (be aware that XFS takes a few seconds to update quotas).

Mandrake 9.0 has ACLs available on ext2/ext3/XFS out-the-box also, plus 
the ability to join a windows domain (via winbind) during a network 
install. If you can't do a network install, it's still pretty trivial.

AFAIK, samba should support any quotas the kernel supports, so you 
should have quota support on Redhat, as long as the filesystems are 
mounted with quota support.
