Hi Richard

No, I can't telnet to port 139 on either of the DC's we have access to.
Port 445 connects fine.

Would you expect port 139 to be available? Given that we are using 1.1.11
or 1.2.0 will it be necessary for this to be opened up? 

Note that the DC's are on the same subnet.
No intentional security tightening occurred on the servers on question.

Thanks for your help!
Cheers
