Samba and netfilter

[borromini]

Hi guys, strange problem here. I've setup samba, when I switch my firewalls of on both computers, i can access my shares without any problem.
This is my LAN structure:
internet
||
||
router==PC1
||
||
PC2

Both pc's have shares. After setting up samba I configured netfilter to accept incoming requests from the other pc's ip address. This is my netfilter config (default policy for incoming requests is 'drop'):

  iptables -t filter -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT # ssh
  iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -j ACCEPT
  iptables -t filter -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type echo-request -j ACCEPT
  iptables -t filter -A INPUT -s 192.168.123.101 -p tcp --dport 139 -j ACCEPT
  iptables -t filter -A INPUT -s 192.168.123.101 -p udp -m multiport --dport 137,138 -j ACCEPT
  iptables -t filter -A INPUT -s 192.168.123.101 -p tcp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT

On my other pc, the netfilter configuration is identical - except for the ip off course which is 192.168.123.100). Now, with both firewalls on and configured, I can't access the samba shares. But when the firewall from the 'origin pc' is off, and the one of the 'destination pc' is on, all goes fine. So that should mean the firewall accepts the incoming requests - as configured. But why the hack does my firewall seem to block the outgoing connection? I have the problem with both pc's (so from 1 to 2, and vice versa).

Can anyone help me out here?

Anyone? Or will this be listed in the 'Can you answer one of these questions?' part

i can think of a couple things you could try. since the computers are on the same network, would this fall under the FORWARD chain? if so, what is the policy set to? also, what is the use of the OUTPUT rule? if you are ACCEPTing all packets, just set the policy to ACCEPT. hope this helps.
