This article explains howto update the Samba packages on CentOS 5 to version 3.5.
First, we need to add a new repository:
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
wget http://ftp.sernet.de/pub/samba/3.5/centos/5/sernet-samba.repo
Then, update samba:
yum update samba
Probably, you will need winbind too:
yum install samba3-winbind samba3-utils
Check the rpm version:
rpm -qa | grep samba
Restarting Samba:
/etc/init.d/smb restart
