Stop *right* there. I'm going to be *amazed* if you successfully
installed RHEL 5.3 without Python, because a lot core utilities such
as "yum" depend on it.
I've been working, when I can spare time, on backporting the Samba
4.0.3 SRPM from Fedoraq to RHEL 6, and there are a *lot* of
dependencies. Note that simply slapping Python 2.6 on top of RHEL 5 by
compiling and stuffing it in place is..... bound to cause a raft of
fascinating issues, and I don't recommend it.
Definitely update to RHEL 6.4, if possible, and consider working from
my samba-4.0.3 backports at:
https://github.com/nkadel/samba4repo
This is designed to check out all the other needed dependencies, and
work from there to build up a local yum repository with all the
necessary libtdb, libldb, iniparser, and other dependencies.
