That looked great until I got signed in and realized that they do not yet have CentOS 7 packages...
I don't need this so I didn't register and so on, but I'm wondering if they offer a source rpm package on that site that you might be able to compile yourself?
They do.
https://download.sernet.de/packages/samba/4.1/rhel/6/src/sernet-samba-4.1.12...
(Link of course requires a vaild account).
I will note that the Sernet folks have indicated they plan to release EL7 packages, but that was several months back and nothing is available yet.
In a pinch, you can often recompile packages from newer versions of Fedora and in some cases they'll even "just work" without recompile (I've installed the stock Samba RPM's from Fedora 20 into RHEL7 with zero issues).
I'll give the source rpm a try and see what happens.
Can this package coesist with the current Samba package, or do I need to remove the CentOS Samba package first?
I'm not 100% certain, but would suggest you remove (and maybe exclude) the official RPM's from your system.
