You should be able to accomplish this by putting a redirect_port statement for port 137 and port 139 in your /etc/natd.conf, that should provide an open communication for netbios browse broadcasts to be sent and received, of course it also defeats the purpose of putting your computer behind a firewall, so don't forget to password protect your network shares. I'm not sure if anything has to be added to the routing table on the natd box though, or if anything else has to be done to smooth over the comms through the gateway, anyone?
