[Bug 921964] Re: gufw and Windows shares
to allow Samba access from my network I use:
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.0.0/24 to any port 137:139,445 proto tcp
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.0.0/24 to any port 137:139,445 proto udp
the Samba profile doesn't include port 445 which may cause some
functionality to fail with some Windows boxes. obviously replace
'192.168.0.0/24' with the range of IPs on your network.

Title:
gufw and Windows shares
Status in Gufw:
Fix Released
Status in “gui-ufw” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
gufw by default does not allow Nautilus to see Windows shares (seen on
a home network, Windows is a non-domain Win7 machine). This is widely
reported, see https://answers.launchpad.net/gui-ufw/+question/72444. I
think the default policy should allow it, but even with the current
policy, gufw should provide an easy way to install the relevant rules
(just adding the Samba Service does not work).
Importance: many people probably disable the firewall altogether
because Windows access is important to them, and the configuration is
difficult.
Workaround:
- Download application profiles from
http://jhansonxi.blogspot.com/2010/10/ufw-application-profiles.html
into /etc/ufw/applications.d/
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw allow samba
sudo ufw allow from any app Samba
Thanks!
