[Samba] sharing printer without login?

[Mark Kruse]

If you are behind a separate hardware/other firewall, there really isn't a
reason to have it up and running.  As long as your internal security is
satisfactory then each machine on an internal lan does not need a firewall.
That is all I'm saying.  If this machine is open to the world, then you'll
want to find the rule that is blocking samba and remove that...  Not all of
them.
