OK, I've figured it out. With the firewall on, it was failing right
after the server was sending back the netbios name service response.
The client end was sending a reject with icmp-host-prohibited. That's
exactly what my iptables was telling it to do. Because UDP is stateless
the ESTABLISHED,RELATED match didn't work. So if I enable UDP traffic
"from" port 137 the NBNS packet will be received and it all works.
Thanks,
