Its just a bug with RedHat 7.0, and is 'mostly harmless'.   Basicly they
included SSL support in a bit of a rush before the 7.0 release.  Updated
packages are available in Rawhide if it bothers you that much.  As far
as I know its not actualy attempting to connect with SSL, but just
attempting to locate the certificates.

(If you don't know what RawHide is then ignore it, its RedHats beta
distro).

Hi Kurt,
         As Andrew said, it's a harmless error. But if you're like me,
it
annoys the hell out of ya! So here's how to fix it:

Add the following line to the [global] section of your smb.conf:

ssl CA certDir = /usr/share/ssl/certs

That's it! The default is /usr/local/ssl/certs , which doesn't exist. So
your other option is to create that directory structure, but I suggest you 
just set it to the directory that already exists. And although I have no 
idea if it makes a difference or not, there's already a Makefile file in 
that directory, so it might pay to point Samba in the right direction, 
rather than create the directory it's looking for. :) I hope this helps!
