Knowing less about iptables than smb.conf and based on what I found in 
the existing /etc/sysconfig/iptables, I added these two lines:
 
                                -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state 
NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 137:139 -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 445 -j 
ACCEPT

Are these the entries I _should_ add to iptables?

Thanks!
