OK, so I was wrong, you would have to change 'Mandrake' to RedHat in my 
script


   IIRC the makerpms.s script for the redhat

Mine does that (except it uses 0.`date +%Y%m%d` as the release number), 
then renames the samba directory to match the version, changes back to 
the packaging directory and runs makerpms.sh, (hopefully) renaming the 
directory back at the end.

[ $# -lt 1 ] &&  echo "Usage: $0 <Samba version>" && exit 1

VERSION=$1
RELEASE=0.`date +%Y%m%d`
shift

# Replace PRELEASE and PVERSION with release number in all files ending with
# .tmpl

FILES=$(find . -name "*.tmpl" -type f)

for i in $FILES;do
         NEW=$(echo $i|sed -e 's/\.tmpl//g');
         cat $i |sed -e 's/PVERSION/'$VERSION'/g; 
s/PRELEASE/'$RELEASE'/g'> $NEW
;
done

#Change up three directories, rename directory to samba-$VERSION, change 
back
#then run makerpms.sh

(
CURRENT=$(pwd)
cd $(dirname $(dirname $(dirname $CURRENT)))
SAMBA_DIR=$(basename $(dirname $(dirname $CURRENT)))
mv $SAMBA_DIR samba-$VERSION
cd samba-$VERSION/packaging/Mandrake
sh makerpms.sh $@
cd $(dirname $(dirname $(dirname $CURRENT)))
mv samba-$VERSION $SAMBA_DIR
)

We could probably have it detect the linux distro in another 2 lines of 
bash, adjust it to live one directory up, and then have one script that 
would work for all rpm-based distros.

Of course, this effort may be better spent on making one spec file which 
will build right on all rpm-based distros, but that would mean everyone 
would need to agree on subpackages (or not ;-)), or we would need lots 
of conditionals for subpackages.
