How do you proxy Netbios? -----Original Message----- From: Joe Shaw [mailto:jshaw () insync net] Sent: Tuesday, November 14, 2000 2:44 PM To: Scott Call Cc: nanog () nanog org Subject: Re: Operational impact of filtering SMB/NETBIOS traffic? It may break some things your customers use, like Exchange mail with NT domain authentication. Also, be aware that Netbios now operates on higher porrts on Win2k and possibly WinME (445/TCP) as well as the 135-139 range. Netbios can also be proxied via 80/TCP now as well, though I think that may only be outbound. People who design protocols like this should be tarred, feathered, and then shot. -- Joseph W.

Due to an increasing number of intrusions into windows-based machines through unprotected shares, I've started filtering both incoming and outgoing traffic for our customers on ports 138/139. So far this has caught a fair amount of traffic coming from customers, but none have called to complain about a lack of connectivity. Because this traffic is IP traffic, I wanted to ask others on this list how they treat SMB traffic on their backbones?
