Comment 9 for bug 579931

Samba server needs a number of ports to be open. This bug is not about samba server(which works great).

Samba client needs to be able to receive unicast replies to multicast query(completely different problem). The problem is that the firewall does not know if the reply is inbound attack or inbound reply to outbound query. There is a kernel module for that. Permanently opening all udp ports is stupid solution. The real solution is given in Bug #360975.

I'm marking it as a duplicate.
