samba's SWAT...won't connect

Robert0380 · 05-19-2003, 12:06 PM

Ok, I have no problem configing samba manually as it seems pretty easy....but I just wanted to take a look at SWAT. Is there something I must do to get swat to run? I have samba start on boot and in the console i typed

Code:

 	[root@decatur samba]#swat ./smb.conf

I setup my firewall to allow me to connect to port 901 and everything, but when i go to mozilla, netscape, konqueror or any other browser, it says it can't connect...as if there is no service running on port 901. Samba itself works fine, but I can't get swat to work...any ideas?

man swat: "swat is run from inetd"

ok, now what though? and i use xinetd not initd and all that stuff is setup but i still cannont connect to SWAT by browsing to http://localhost:901 and yes, its configured to run on port 901.

Edit /etc/services, and add a line:

swat 901/tcp # swat

in the list.
