What are you doing about port 135 and 138? These are also NetBIOS and include the most vulnerable, port 135.

Is there any method to eliminate all the netbios traffic, and, at the same time, the machine can still share resources and map drive?
I've set my firewall to simply ignore traffic to ports 137 and 139. That seems to work with a Cisco PIX, and with the Linux ipchains packet filter I was using before that. -- Glenn English ghe () slsware com --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
