NT domain trust across a cisco router

I think this is probably a pretty straightforward problem, but I've failed to get it:
I have domains sam and smc separated by a cisco 2621.  smc has some resources that sam must use.  I've added helper-addresses for the broadcast channel and the pdc of the other side to each of my ports.  I've enabled directed-broadcast and added forward-protocol for the udp 137/138 that pass NetBIOS.  However, I still get the "unable to locate domain controller" when I set up the trust relationship.  Any ideas?

Open up port 139 as well.
Here's the Qbase article for the whole story:

Port 135 for RPC calls should be opened as well.  We just set up a similar network last week but didn't need 135 for our purpose.

Opening these ports will stuff up your browsing :

+if you use Cisco's IP helper, look at :

You need the 139 nbsession port to establish a session to create the trust account.

Why Gobsmacked Tim?
I find that an interesting accepted answer because without port 139 you would be unable to create a trust.
