First, I wanted to know what command line used to check the ip address.
Second, I have tried to configure Samba but was unable to launch SWAT on the web browser.

Below are steps that have been done


The etc/services file , I added
swat 901/tcp

The /etc/inetd.conf file, I added
swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /usr/sbin/swat swat

After editing these files I issued the command line

kill -1 PID where PID si the process ID of the inetd
daemon).

Finally, I failed to launch SWAT when pointing it at
http://localhost:901/
where localhost is my server's IP address.
Please help.

Thanks in advance

Sorry I didn't reply to that mail, but I'm no good with Samba in general. You're fine... you just CANT use the ip address in the browser. You literally have to put in http://localhost:901.

Oh, and the command line is: ifconfig

what distro and version are you using? that may help us give you more specific solutions.

getting your ip: type 'ifconfig' at the console.

Thanks for your responses. I have Suse Linux7.3 box.
My Linux server is using DHCP assigned by an other NT server. Currently, I have an existing network. Just wanted to add two more Linux7.3 based computers. (1 is a server, and the other is a workstation). I can launch the web browser on Linux server, but am unable to connect the server to the existing network printer, NT server and have file shares.

I have tried many different ways to launch SWAT in vain.

Please help.

Finally, I got the SWAT running. I've still been working on LAN setup. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Finally, I successfully got the Samba up and running smoothly. I can see Linux clients on the NT server.

Thanks

Lenka.
