Every time I reboot the computer I have to disable the firewall and do a
flush so that my samba works, Do you know who to make it stay disabled
forever ?

This is what I have to do all the time after boot up :

service iptables stop
iptables -F

Don't load it in the first place: chkconfig --levels 0123456 iptables off

...or you could simply add the rules to let the samba traffic go where it
needs to go.

If your machine is on the internet it will only last about 20 minutes
without a firewall before it's zombified.
