You just told him to open port 135 and 137...

135 is: 

epmap           135/tcp    DCE endpoint resolution
epmap           135/udp    DCE endpoint resolution
#                          Joe Pato - [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Whatever that is... though I suspect it has something to do with maybe Frame
Relay or X.25... dunno for sure, and I don't have a lot of time to look it
up.

137 is:
netbios-ns      137/tcp    NETBIOS Name Service    
netbios-ns      137/udp    NETBIOS Name Service    

More commonly known as WINS. This is generally regarded as a bad thing to
open to the world... now that IS likely to get one hung...

You want 53 135 and I think 137 but you do not want that primary in the DMZ.
You will hang, or should I say they will hang you.
