I had a problem in which some of my machines can't see any workgroups on my network without disabling the firewall or setting FW_ALLOW_INCOMING_HIGHPORTS_UDP to yes. Log entries that would show up each time look similar to this. SFW2-INext-DROP-DEFLT IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:10:b5:8d:af:fb:00:0c:6e:63:11:af:08:00 SRC=192.168.0.2 DST=192.168.0.101 LEN=90 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=139 DF PROTO=UDP SPT=137 DPT=1028 LEN=70 I don't want to disable my firewall and the FW_ALLOW_INCOMING_HIGHPORTS_UDP option is deprecated and will soon be taken out. Is there another solution to this problem?
