[pmfirewall] Samba Questions

I have a Samba server on my internet gateway, which has PMFirewall installed
on it. I saw that there was a option to disable the ports for Samba/NetBIOS
during the setup. I disabled them to be safe as the software advised me to.
  I realized that those ports would now be shut off and my Samba server
would not be seen anymore on my network.

My question is: Can I disable those ports so any connections coming in from
the outside (Internet) can be refused/dumped and any connections coming from
my internal network be accepted? Can I use the PMFirewall software to do
this?

If I cannot use pmfirewall to do this, does anyone know of a place that can
explain how to do this?

Thanks!
Andy
