Using IPTABLES to block access to samba except certain IPs

[addicted2linux]

I am running a samba server on Fedora Core 4 on a home DSL connection. I want to allow only the machines on my local network and my cousins computer who is on a different network to be able to connect to samba while blocking everyone else. With my current setup I recently discovered that other machines on the same subnet as me can see my Samba server and I am getting alot of different computers and IP addresses showing up in my logs.

What I would like to do to prevent this is setup an IPTABLES firewall to block all access to samba and then create rules to allow only the IP addresses on my network and my cousin's network.

Here is my current firewall configuration, as you can see I do not have the samba port listed so it is closed by default. What I need to know is how do I create the rules to open up access for the specific IPs.

# import this saved configuration into your iptables configuration with the following command:
# iptables-restore < web_server.config

I tried using the following IPTABLES rules to open up access to my computer pnly but it has not been successful.

iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.46 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -s 192.168.1.46 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT

I have also tried using 192.168.1.0/24 for the IP to open up access to all the machines on my local network and that doesn't work either.

Does anyone have an idea of what I am doing incorrectly. I would appreciate any and all assistance. Thank you very much.

I've got a similar rule running for ssh. The only difference is I've left off the -m portion:

iptables -A INPUT -s ip.ad.dr.ess -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT

The -m option tells iptables to find an "explicit" match. You were already matching the tcp protocol with the -p.

Here's an explanation from a linuxvoodoo tutorial...

The difference between implicitly loaded matches and explicitly loaded ones, is that the implicitly loaded matches will automatically be loaded when, for example, you match on the properties of TCP packets, while explicitly loaded matches will never be loaded automatically - it is up to you to discover and activate explicit matches.
