I'm guessing this is Windows patch KB957097
If it is then it should have made it to RHEL radar already I think anyway..

File a bug  "Windows patch KB957097 (security bulletin MS08-068) breaks 
samba.. "
Describe your problem
Increase the log level ( Add log level = 10 to /etc/samba/smb.conf ) of 
samba
recreate those steps that produce the error and and attach the logs to 
the bug report.

You can try reverting the windows patch and unjoin <--> rejoin the host 
to the DC to see if that "circumvents" this issue.
