We've had similar troubles with Samba 3.x on our ClearCase VOB server running RHEL3. Our fix was to go back to the old 2.2.12, and we haven't had a problem since. Unfortunately I was never able to devote enough time to tracking down the problem fully. I had hoped that upgrading to RHEL4 using a 2.6 kernel would help, but your experience doesn't bode well for that.
We had similar problems. stracing hung child smbd processes pointed the finger at *local* locking issues: processes were hanging in fcntl(...,F_SETLKW64,...) for one byte locks on fd 14 = locking.tdb; the culprit function is tdb_brlock.
Turning off oplocks seems to have helped, but we'd also like to get to the bottom of this... is this fcntl/locking hang behavior what you are seeing too?
