Edit firewall to see workgroups


Hi guys

I used smb4k (and still are) to see the workgroups that Iam connected too ... actuall Iam on a wan that contains many Lan and Iam one of them .. I used to see up to 6 workgroups with their workstations before I enabled the firewall... now that the firewall is running I cant see them anymore... when I disable the firewall everything is fine again...what rules should I edit in the firewall to get it running smoothly.???

Thnaks

You're probably blocking ports 137 to 139. Unblock them and it should be enough.

Does your firewall log blocked attempts? Just try to make the connection, and when it fails, check the logs and see what was blocked.
