consider loading module nf_conntrack_netbios_ns with ufw

[Martin Pulec]

Please consider adding nf_conntrack_netbios_ns into IPT_MODULES in /etc/default/ufw in order to profile Samba work correctly. I guess that Samba is quite widely used and for a novice user it would be difficult to set the profile up. I know that the profile is a part of the Samba package but I guess there is no way to configure loading modules in the profile configuration file.
While I was using Shorewall in Debian there was not such a problem so it might be an inspiration. (I really don't know if shorewall "intelligently" loads the modules or it loads more modules in advance - I guess that the second possibility is correct).
This is just a wish but I think that it might help some users.
I use Ubuntu 9.10, ufw 0.29-4ubuntu1.
