Ports 137-139 should be enough. You probably don't even need all three as
one of them is probably broadcast only, so won't leave your subnet anyway.
Is any part of this filesharing going to go on over public IP space? If
so, are you mad? Excellent way to get rooted (or the win2k version -
Administratored, I suppose).
If you want to do any NT/Win2k sharing over the internet, you should
really look into an encrypted P-t-P tunnel (poptop/pptp, ipsec(freeswan),
DIY vpn over ssh, etc.).
