On Lucid 32 using 0.30 from repos when I do a :

sudo ufw allow Samba

I get :

ERROR: Could not find a profile matching 'Samba'

Seems a bit odd that UFW is setup to allow you to serve Samba but if you
want to browse a network it's not possible. For example if you're
running a laptop and go between multiple WLANs then you don't want to be
constantly messing with rules to make it possible to view network
shares.

ufw/gufw need a preset for samba-client

Status in Gufw: Won't Fix
Status in “ufw” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ufw

Going to "Places > Network" returns "unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server" when ufw is enabled. Turning off ufw allows receiving responses from the samba broadcast (tested in GNOME's "Places > Network" and with smbtree). There is no preset for samba-client in ufw/gufw. This bug requests a "samba-client" preset for ufw/gufw which allows inbound udp ports 1024-65535.

By allowing inbound udp ports 1024-65535, browsing shares through Places > Network works as expected.
