Hello,

Im running "win2k pro", with "tiny firewall", and am having some configuration problems, with the nbtstat command, when i run the command on any host, with my firewall enabled it will give the output "host not found", and then when i disable the firewall it will list the "name table". Soo i think i narrowed it down to firewall configuration problem, can anyone help me on how to configure my firewall soo it will let me run this command.... if what i am trying to explain is not clear, here is what i mean.....
C:\>nbtstat -a 1xx.x7x.x5.x9

"FIREWALL - disabled"

Local Area Connection:
Node IpAddress: [1xx.x7x.x5.x9] Scope Id: []

NetBIOS Remote Machine Name Table

Name Type Status
---------------------------------------------
BARBIE-316 <03> UNIQUE Registered
BARBIE-316 <03> UNIQUE Registered

MAC Address = xx-x8-xx-8x-Cx-x4


"FIREWALL -enabled"
C:\>nbtstat -a 1xx.x7x.x5.x9

Local Area Connection:
Node IpAddress: [1xx.x7x.x5.x9] Scope Id: []

Host not found.


2>And soo i dont waste another post, i tryed to look for a tutorial on how to disable listening ports, like 135,139 <---(i disabled "file and print" but it is still listening), 445 but, cant find anything other than getting a firewall and blocking them.. Is that the best solution?? Or can you go into "control panel"-"services" and play with some of those setting to turn them off??? Like i know 135 is for "DCE endpoint resolution" but how do i disable it?? THANKS
