Marcos, this was already tested in Ubuntu 10.04 using gufw 10.04.4-0ubuntu1.

gufw has a service preset for samba (135, 139, 445/tcp in & 137, 138/udp in). This is only good if you are running a samba server on your own computer and would like people to be able to connect to you.

The preset I am requesting gives the ability to browse network shares using a samba client (1024:65535/udp in).

As you can see in the attached snapshot, setting the firewall to use the samba (server) preset does not allow me to get a reply to the broadcast message and see all the shares on the network.
