| Short
for Network Basic
Input/Output System, NetBIOS was developed by IBM,
Microsoft, and Sytek and is what
allows software applications, commonly used on IBM compatible computers,
communicate with network hardware, allowing data to be transmitted
properly over a network.
NetBIOS
commonly communicates on ports
137, 138 and 139. If your network
or computer
has a firewall
setup
that blocks any of these ports it is likely warning messages
will be received when your computer communicates with another
computer that utilizes NetBIOS (for example: Microsoft
Windows). To prevent these errors
or warnings you must provide access
on these ports.
