I had a RedHat 5.2 need to trust domain the Windows Server 2008 R2 (forest

Which package I need to install first? I am using samba-3.0.28 but I have
no samba-winbind.
May I know procedures of trust setting in Linux?
Please have a look here first:

Red Hat 5.2 (which is amazingly old now), or RHEL 5.2 (which is only 5
years old)? If RHEL 5.2, you should at least remove the samba-*
packages and replace them with the samba3x-* packages, which include
samba3x-winbind and are version 3.6.6, instead of the much older
samba-3.0.33 which is the last update from a licensed RHEL host.
That requires something much more recent than RHEL5.2. As I recall
samba3x first came with RHEL 5.6
If your RHEL license has expired, you can also consider using the
CentOS or Scientific Linux versions of the package.
He needs to do more than that. The version of RHEL he is running has
more than one remote root exploit, with Samba being one of them. Just
replacing the Samba packages with something more recent is insufficient
to secure that machine. As a matter of some urgency the box should be
upgraded to latest, and if the RHEL license has expired then "switched"
to CentOS/Scientific Linux. Personally my choice is CentOS because a
range of third part software e.g. all the Dell firmware updates
recognize CentOS and work where they consider Scientific Linux as
unsupported without fiddling with things.
