What do you mean by everything is inside the firewall? Please answer
straight answers like the firewall is on another machine or any other
scientific-like reason why the SMB traffic shouldn't be disturbed by an
firewall. If you'd like help, of course.
What is your net topology? Do you have a Windows PDC? because from what I
see in your config the domain controller is *not* your samba server.
But from:

nmbd/nmbd_become_lmb.c:become_local_master_stage2(404)

I see that your samba isn't challenged for the Domain Master function and
gets ellected wich means your (eventually) Win PDC is not operational.

I have one more question: what is the output from
ps -A|grep nmbd ? I think it is running but just to be sure.
