I got something very similar to this when I was trying SAMBA. One kind person on this or another newsgroup suggested disabling the firewall on the linux box. RH seems to configure firewalls automatically; I'm not that familiar with RH's setup and I don't know what ports particularly SAMBA uses particularly (136 or 137 or something close), but, to do a quick test, try this as root: "service IPCHAINS stop" to see if it will help. This will completely disable your firewall. Next time you reboot, the firewall will be reset to the old values.
