I am going to assume that 10.1.1.7[56] are known hosts in your
network. The logs seem to suggest that 10.1.1.75 is trying to use
your box as a WINS server.

I have not seriously used Samba since 1.9, but I just configured
a system running 2.2 today, with 'security = user' and adding a
Windows password to Samba via smbpasswd.

Thinking back to your original message, I suspect nmbd is
actually running, but you do not have it configured properly for
browsing to work. Even on Windows to Windows, browsing is a pain.
