Hello,
I am still having one problem with the firewals script. I get *many* mesages like the following in /var/log/messages. There must be some mismatch between my Samba configuration and my rc.firewall configuration.
I asked the same question to Marc Heuse, and according to him one shouldn't install Samba and the firewall on the same machine. Samba tries to broadcast wich the firewall doesn't allow. If you want to allow Samba to broadcast, that would open several security holes. So the best solution is: put samba on another machine and install only a firewall on your gateway.
