alfresco-community-3.4.b SMB/CIFS Timeout Error

I installed alfresco on debian lenny using the below alfresco installer:

alfresco-community-3.4.b-installer-linux-x64.bin

I can get to the alfresco web interface at http://<server ip>:8080/alfresco

I'm having trouble interacting with smb/cifs locally on the server or remotely from a client:

I get the below timeout error when I'm logged into the server and I try to interact with smb/cifs or when I'm logged into a desktop computer running Mac OS X or Linux and I try to remotely interact with alfresco smb/cifs.

I've created a few users in the web interface. All I'm trying to do is connect to smb/cifs and interact with the files and see that it works.

What could cause this?
Is this a configuration issue?
What do I need to configure?

Where should I look to troubleshoot this?
alfresco.log doesn't show any errors

same issue
I can't telnet to the CIFS port from outside the server, it seems like a firewall issue almost…very weird!

add/edit this to your alfresco-global.properties

filesystem.name=Alfrescocifs.enabled=truecifs.localname=${localname}cifs.domain=localdomaincifs.broadcast=255.255.255.255cifs.bindto=0.0.0.0cifs.ipv6=disabledcifs.hostannounce=trueftp.enabled=trueftp.ipv6=disablednfs.enabled=false‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

also look at the end of this post: http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=36591

This allowed my CIFS to work from Windows and OS X with Alfresco running on  CentOS server
