I want the wireless clients to be able to access the file share on the

If so, what port(s) (or range) should I open?
Yes, you are correct. You need to open 2 udp ports - 137 and 138 for
NetBIOS Name and Datagram services, and tcp ports 139 and 445 for NetBIOS
session and M$ Directory services. Jut open it for the IP address of the XP
client and all should be sweet.

Thanks, very helpful - it "just works", nice! Now I'd like to be able to
print as well, more holes needed since none of the printers are available.
Simplest case is the office printer/copier with it's own IP address
directly on the green network. What ports/protocols do I need open for
that?
And then for a printer attached to a PC, presumably this requires opening
ports to the PC's address, but is the process essentially the same and the
ports the same?
Cheers,
Roger
What protocol are you using for the printer?
The port configuration taken from a windows machine that connects to
this printer says "raw" protocol on port 9100. Having earlier guessed
that it might be IPP, I currently have pinholes for the following: both
TCP and UDP, for each of the ports 9100, 631 and 80, each from blue
network to green network. I still get "printer not found on server,
unable to connect" from the XP client. So my guesses aren't quite right
- I'm not sure what to look for or at from this point?
