ok.. i think ive been told this isnt important, but ill ask anyway..

my firewall log shows alot of hits to a netbios-ns/137 port.

Can someone explain why im getting hit by many IPs to the same port?

my router is a linux firewall/router called smoothwall (2.2.21 kernel)

attached is my log for today. first IP is the source, second is the destination (mine).

thanks!
