Re: Blocking NetBios

[Ryan King <ryan.king () optigate net>]

Depending on the version of Windows, there is the option to locally block the netbios ports from outside connection, or 
over specific interfaces. Windows 2000 and XP both support this option in the network configuration settings. 

Cheers, 

Ryan
