First, don't use privileged ports (<1024) as many ISPs block them as well,
then use these ports:
137 (netbios-ns:   NETBIOS Name Sce)     => UDP
138 (netbios-dgm:  NETBIOS Datagram Sce) => UDP
139 (netbios-ssn:  NETBIOS session Sce)  => TCP
445 (microsoft-ds: M$ Naked CIFS)        => TCP

Although, services needing multiple ports communications and multiple
protocols are usually easier to tunnel via a VPN (OpenVPN does it very
well and is easy to configure [use the bridged mode, NOT the routed one]).
