The example testparm command you give works for me on CentOS 5.2 with
samba3-3.4.9-42.el5 and on CentOS 5.6 with samba3-3.5.11-44.el5.  Build the
command up slowly and try to identify where it is failing:

# testparm -s	# Do you get any output?
# testparm --section-name=global -s		# Do you get the right
section?
# testparm --section-name=global -s | grep ALIX		# Does grep work?
