[Samba] winbind issues

[Board, Clint]

Hi all :) <- newb to list

I am setting up RedHat 9 running samba 2.2.7a, i currently get the following
error in my log.winbind:

error connecting to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:445 (Connection refused)

also, i get this when i run wbinfo -u or -g:

0xc0000022

and this when i run wbinfo -N xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (this works fine if i pass the
netbios name instead of the ip):

Could not lookup WINS by name xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

I am assuming that these issues stem from the same problem, however i am
somewhat new to samba so.... I have looked around and have not had any luck
on a resolution but have found mentions of the same issues. Attached is my
smb.conf, any help would be appreciated.
