I have the firewall running and access our Samba Server with out 
any problems but I setup an /etc/fstab entry :

//asgard/public /mnt/public smbfs \
noauto,user,credentials=/home/guy/.credentials,\
port=139,gid=500,uid=500 0 0

Note: The port=139 is required for servers that are SMB not CIFS.

The only trick is you need to do as root is :

chmod u+s /usr/bin/smbmnt

I set myself as the owner of /mnt/public and the .credentials 
file is :

---start---
username = winuser
password = winpass
---end---

Doing it this way you don't have to copy files to your hard 
drive to open them.

Hope this helps.
