<obligatory statement>I can't in good conscience ever recommend running
a service like Samba on an internet connected host,  firewall rules or
not.  A firewall should be a firewall.  Buy a $10 PC, use it as a
firewall, and play with things like Samba on another box - inside the
network, not on the edge.</obligatory statement>
