You actually don't need all the ports in both places, but it doesn't really make any difference -- for example, on my system I have UDP open for port 137 only. Do note that port ranges are specified using a colon, eg. 137:139.
If you have any XP systems in the network you must also enable port 445 on TCP. The port 1024 reference someone mentioned is in error. -- Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo. -- HG Wells -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
