    Hi!

    I have Windows2003 server which now is being used as Web/Mail server only.
    So, all the ports are blocked exept 80,25,110 and couple of others. The
    server has public IP address (let's say "A") . There is also a small local
    network behind the router/firewall (address="B"). B is also public IP
    address from the same subnet and in fact A & B both plugged into main DSL
    modem/router.

    I'd like to share the printer and some folders on A and allow the
    workstations behind B to access it. To do this I can allow traffic for
    specific ports between those two IP addresses, continuing to block all the
    requests on those ports for any other IPs.

    My question is: what ports/protocols support "File & Printer sharing" and
    must be unblocked?

    Thenks in advance,
    Dmitry
