Well, of course if you have enabled firewall that doesn't allow samba connections from outside... obviously you have to allow these connections first. It's out of question. The problem described above is that everything is set up correct but still samba doesn't work not because of a firewall issues but because of selinux.

With FC4 there is no but with the firewall at all talking about samba. The settings should be:

a) if you are using system-config-securitylevel-tui to make iptables config:

netbios-ns:udp netbios-dgm:udp netbios-ssn:tcp

b) if you are modifying /etc/sysconfig/iptables direct:

-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 137 -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 138 -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 139 -j ACCEPT

I do not know how it's under X because I'm not using X at all =)
