to allow Samba access from my network I use: sudo ufw allow from 192.168.0.0/24 to any port 137:139,445 proto tcp sudo ufw allow from 192.168.0.0/24 to any port 137:139,445 proto udp
the Samba profile doesn't include port 445 which may cause some functionality to fail with some Windows boxes. obviously replace '192.168.0.0/24' with the range of IPs on your network. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Gufw Developers, which is subscribed to gui-ufw in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/921964 Title: gufw and Windows shares Status in Gufw: Fix Released Status in “gui-ufw” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: gufw by default does not allow Nautilus to see Windows shares (seen on a home network, Windows is a non-domain Win7 machine). This is widely reported, see https://answers.launchpad.net/gui-ufw/+question/72444. I think the default policy should allow it, but even with the current policy, gufw should provide an easy way to install the relevant rules (just adding the Samba Service does not work). Importance: many people probably disable the firewall altogether because Windows access is important to them, and the configuration is difficult. Workaround: - Download application profiles from http://jhansonxi.blogspot.com/2010/10/ufw-application-profiles.html into /etc/ufw/applications.d/ sudo ufw enable sudo ufw allow samba sudo ufw allow from any app Samba Thanks!
