Unless there is something seriously wrong with your firewall implementation or your kernel, the above IPTABLE rule should work. How do you know that your outside UDP port 139 is open (not the inside port 139 for eth0, that might be open)? What kind of check did you do? Are you running any kind of samba or windows netbios? craig woods -- 2:20pm up 1 day, 3:26, 1 user, load average: 0.01, 0.01, 0.00
