Mark, I went ahead and started a configure your firewall page at
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configure_your_firewall<https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configure_your_firewall>
if
you wouldn't mind adding how you added your rules (I am completely out of
the loop when it comes to IPTables) and linked this to the page referenced
in my first mail, also I added the line for the dns troublshooting as well,
however with samba 4.0.1+ this should be less of an issue I hope.
