I have a Linux-based NAS which has a share called epub. I keep all my ebooks on this share.

I have Calibre installed on a few machines (home PC, laptop and office PC) and was able to access this share by creating a Calibre library at

\\mydomain.no-ip.org\epub\

However, I recently realised that my router's firewall was wide open and took action to block all ports. I now need to find out on which port Calibre was connecting to this share.

I've tried the following:
137-140 (NetBIOS)
445
8080

None of the above allow me access.

Does anyone know which port I need to open on my router?
