NetBIOS is feeble, and non routeable... One way around it, and it doesn't involve NetBIOS/samba on the firewall: You need two Samba servers, one on each subnet. Export the filesystem to be shared from one Samba server to the other. This means that the firewall only has to allow NFS traffic from one SMB to the other. This way you don't compromise the firewall machine.. only the Samba servers by running NFS...
