Something like:
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --sport 137:139 -j ACCEPT

Actually, you only need 137:138 udp and 139 tcp for normal SMB usage. And Sean is absolutely correct, your ruleset should match destination
port, not source port. It's not *anything like* what you posted. ;-)




This is true. you need udp 137,138 and tcp 139.
General rules on setting rules: :)
1. sniff traffic to see what kind of communication you have on what ports.
2. use iptables logging to see what packets get dropped

Real rules:

iptables -A INPUT -d <local_ip_address> -i <local_interface> -p tcp --dport 139 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -d <local_ip_address> -i <local_interface> -p udp -dport 137:139 -j ACCEPT


iptables -A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

Before you use them read the manual.
This should take care of your problems.
