gNewSense does not block any network traffic by default.

Right because the firewall isn't actiated by default. Or did I missunderstood 
something?

You could say that it's not activated.

You can check your firewall settings by running "sudo iptables -L" in a 
terminal.

This is the output of "sudo iptables -L":
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
but I don't unterstand it.

You can think of iptables as the "raw" firewall. ufw is an easier front-end. This shows that everything is open (firewall is disabled). I assume you have set ufw to "default deny". To enable access to shared folders you probably have to enter "sudo ufw allow 445/tcp". I've updated the ports table on the wiki.
