I have a Windows NT Server inside my network, running NETbeui protocols. I appear to be getting these requests from outside. What uses port 137? Nobody on the network seems to be complaining that they can't do stuff, so I am inclined to let it go, and keep denying the packets. Is there a reason I should be letting these packets through? Does anybody hava any thoughts on this? Thanks Dave Aas dave@ciminot.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
