[Samba] cannot see the samba server when browsing

Mon Mar 27 13:08:50 GMT 2006

I would like to know if there is a rule that can be created in iptables that would allow a samba server shares to be seen on the internal LAN.  The interface is on eth0 the ip address of eth0 is 192.168.0.1.  It seems that when I applied a firewall I have blocked smb from showing up.  Now the users cannot see any shares via Network Neighborhood , but I can map a drive via Start->Run->\\192.168.0.1\sharename.
This is on a Debian 3.1 server.

Thanks

Jon
