[Samba] Clean install of RedHat 7.3, including samba - unable to connectto port 139

[Thomas Klettke]

Looks like your firewall is blocking it.

Try it after turning the FW off:

    service ipchains stop

and/or

    service iptables stop

depending on which you are running.

If you can connect now, check the firewall rules before turning them back
on.
