samba - Feb 2003 - remote swat enabling

I've done this before and can't remember how.  Also I have searched the
archives and can't find it. Maybe some of us can come up with a better way
searching the archives.  My current way takes a lot of time.  Anyway I am
trying to enable swat from a remote location and there is some file
somewhere that says only allow it from local but I can't remember what file
that is.  Can anyone help?

Check /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow.

If your system is using xinetd, then also check /etc/xinet.d/swat (or
wherever it is located on your system.
