As good as swat is, and I know it is tedious.... Because there are getting to be so many options, in the smb.conf file, it is easy to get a bit "lost". Although SWAT does fair job in trying to group the options together.....very often the setting on one option reflects what the other options should be. In some cases another option is then not used. It would be nice if SWAT presented the relevant options together, and make some fields not alterable depending on the major one. I am sorry that I do not have the stuff in front of me, to quote an example, but I think that you get the drift.
