You still need to block access from outside as this settings only affect
TCP, not UDP. Your interfaces setting includes the "127.0.0.1/8" net?

SIMBA is your workgroup name and AMAZON the netbios name of your samba
server? IP 210.49.xx.xx is within your own network?

Do you really need a domain master browser setting as

"# Domain Master specifies Samba to be the Domain Master Browser. This
# allows Samba to collate browse lists between subnets. Don't use this
# if you already have a Windows NT domain controller doing this job"

Do you need a WINS server running too? What do you have set for WINS in
the smb.conf?

If above annotations are not helpful you may provide us with the output
for the [global] section of a "testparm" run. "testparm" may also print
you out some other useful information.
