Thanks for your replies. I will hopefully get an added response from the SerNet folks . But your comments led me to an obvious alternative source which is the RHEL install set where they distribute directly from the RHEL OS media (i.e. Samba is part of their OS distribution & optionally installed). I will pursue that avenue also with my client's infrastructure team. Cheers...

Just an update... I found the "Sernet" keys which can be installed as an rpm package itself on the page: https://portal.enterprisesamba.com/ Of course now it appears I need to be root to install anything but that's ok... we will be ready to go with all packages working with the infrastructure folks tomorrow!
