Well, if this was a Debian based machine, I would run 'dist-upgrade' ;-)
Unless you missed it, RHEL5 is dead and should no longer be used,
unless you have installed the last red-hat Samba packages, you will be
using Samba 3.0.x packages (which again are dead). If you have
installed the last available red-hat RHEL5 Samba packages, then it will
be a 3.6.x version and guess what, this version is dead as well.
So, as both your distro and Samba version are dead, you don't really
have any other option, you will have to upgrade.
If your problem is a bug (it may not be, it could be a lack of a
feature or features), you have absolutely no chance of getting
anybody to fix it, partially because it will probably have been fixed
in a later version, but mainly because your distro and Samba version
are dead.
Sorry if this upsets you, but it is better to tell the truth at the
start.
