I am using Fedora Core 5
She has Windows XP Media Center Edition. I cannot see her computer at all when
I try to browse with smb4k or with my file manager.
She cannot can see my computer if I scan from her station but she cannot
connect to me. I ran a scan on SMB ports from her and they show as open so
she should see my printer but doesn't.
My firewall is reporting the attempt of ports like 35578 attempting to make an
inbound connection from her.
Did MS change things again or is there something else?

I had once some problems regarding SMB connections and firewalls;
according to Microsoft the ports needed to make this kind of connections
should be 135/UDP, 137/UDP, 138/UDP, 139/TCP and 445/TCP, but if I open
these ports using iptables and block anything else, the connections are
not possible.
I tried all the port/protocol posible combinations and could not make it...
Good luck.
