If you're talking about checking the local LAN for available shares, this is new. It's due to a new module; ip_conntrack_netbois_ns: #lsmod ip_conntrack 49261 2 ip_conntrack_netbios_ns,xt_state nfnetlink 6489 1 ip_conntrack which now allows you to discover smb shares on the LAN without disabling your iptables firewall.
