Note that Samba provides RPM's (binary and source) for Fedora here: http://us2.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/Fedora/
Created attachment 96985 [details] Diff between Fedora 3.0.0 and Samba 3.0.1 spec files I've attached a diff of the Fedora and Samba spec files for reference. I expect there will be some merging of these for the next Fedora package release.
Looks like 3.0.2-1rc1 is in the development directory. Here's a mirror: ftp://linux.stanford.edu/pub/mirrors/fedora/linux/core/development/SRPMS/samba-3.0.2-1rc1.src.rpm
