Sure, you can setup samba on your RedHat installation but if there is no other machine to access the network and shares, it is somewhat difficult to test unless you are using VMWare to run either ME or RedHat in a virtual machine.
When it comes to samba, I took the easy route and installed swat and use it for the administration of samba resources under FreeBSD.

Samba(7) delivers the set of four SMF(5) services as can be seen from the following example:
$ svcs samba wins winbind swat
STATE STIME FMRI
disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/samba:default
disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/winbind:default
disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/wins:default
disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/swat:default
where the services are:
"samba"
runs the smbd daemon managing the CIFS sessions
"wins"
runs the nmbd daemon enabling the browsing (WINS)
"winbind"
runs the winbindd daemon making the domain idmap
"swat"
Samba Web Administration Tool is a service providing access to browser-based Samba administration interface and on-line documentation.
The service runs on software loopback network interface on port 901/tcp, i.e. opening "http://localhost:901/" in browser will access
the SWAT service on local machine.
Please note: SWAT uses HTTP Basic Authentication scheme where user name and passwords are sent over the network in clear text. In the SWAT
case the user name is root. Transferring such sensitive data is advisable only on the software loopback network interface or over secure
networks.
