[Samba] Samba Won't Work

I tried to get Samba running on my new Trustix installation all day
yesterday with no luck. I'm a newbie, so there's a lot I don't know yet.
At any rate, I have the Smb, nmbd, and smbd services running. I've got my
smb.conf file set up properly from what I can tell. When I try the following
command on my Linux box:
smbclient //192.168.1.102/backup -U jesse
I get the error, "error connecting to 192.168.1.102 (Invalid Argument)". I
have tried it without the "-U", and that didn't make any difference. Same
error. When I try to connect from my Windows PC, I get the following errors
in the file log.192.168.1.100:
[2004/11/16 02:05:47, 0] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_in(708)
[2004/11/16 02:05:47, 0] smbd/oplock.c:init_oplocks(1308)
open_oplock_ipc: Failed to get local UDP socket for address 100007f. Error
was Cannot assign requested address
Also, when I do a smbpasswd -a jesse, I get the error, "Segmentation fault",
and it doesn't add the user. This may be the cause of all my problem.
Any ideas what this means, or how I fix it? Remember, I'm a newbie, so I'll
need more details than usual.
Here's my smb.conf:
[global]
workgroup = AWAY_TEAM
server string = Trustix Secure Linux Samba Server
security = share
hosts allow = 192.168.1. 127.
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%I
#============================ Share Definitions
==============================
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writable = yes
writable = yes
create mode = 0600
directory mode = 0700
valid users = %S
[backup]
comment = Backup
path = /backup
writeable = yes
Thanks,
Jesse
