The "routeback" option tells Shorewall to build chains to manage int <-> int 
traffic.  With
"routeback", your policy should take effect as well as any rules like:
DROP    int    int    tcp    snmp

As far as Windows name resolution, I run Samba with "wins support = yes" and at 
DHCP
time pass out "option netbios-name-servers".
