This may help, not sure, i had the same prob until i added to the /etc/services file swat 901/tcp got this tip from link below: with text copied from that doc follows next. Hope that helps! http://home.germany.net/101-69082/samba.html 3. Configuration Issues 3.1. SWAT - a configuration tool The 'man swat' documentation is a very good place to start, although I am paranoid enough to use TCP-Wrappers. To use swat with TCP-Wrappers, in /etc/inetd.conf, take the line swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /usr/sbin/swat swat and change it to swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/swat /etc/services needs a line swat 901/tcp hosts.deny needs the line swat: ALL In /etc/hosts.allow you need swat: 127.0.0.1 and maybe a second IP address or range as well on that line if you are feeling adventurous. As of version 2.0.7, Using Samba can also be accessed via SWAT.

swat is disabled by default for xinetd. Check for '/etc/xinetd.d/swat'. If it's there, open it and check for a line that reads 'disable=yes'. Either comment it out, change it to 'no', or delete it. Then stop and start xinetd to enable your changes. i.e. '/etc/init.d/xinetd stop', then '/etc/init.d/xinetd start'.> -----Original Message----- > From: Charles Marcus [mailto:CharlesM@media-Brokers.com] > Sent: Sunday, April 08, 2001 3:36 PM > To: Samba Maillist (E-mail) > Subject: RE: 2.2a3 and SWAT - connection refused by server > > > I almost forgot - I'm using Redhat 7.0, which uses xinetd > instead of inetd, > but I can't find anything in the man pages or anywhere else on using > xinetd... > > anyone? > > thanks > > Charles > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: samba-admin@lists.samba.org > > [mailto:samba-admin@lists.samba.org]On > > Behalf Of Charles Marcus > > Sent: Sunday, April 08, 2001 3:59 PM > > To: Samba Maillist (E-mail) > > Subject: 2.2a3 and SWAT - connection refused by server > > > > > > Help! > > > > I finally got it installed, and now I can't get into SWAT... > > > > I go to http://servername:901, and get a 'The connection was > > refused by the > > server" > > > > Can anybody tell me what dumb thig I'm doing wrong?

[RESOLVED] 2.2a3 and SWAT - connection refused by server
Many thanks to Michael McEldowney for fixing my problem with Samba 2.2a3 on my Redhat 7.0 box. The problem was simple enough once I understood how xinetd works...since I didn't have 2.07 installed before I installed 2.2a3, there was no /etc/xinetd.d/swat file for xinetd to use to run SWAT. All I had to do was copy the text from the file Michael provided (which I will be happy to provide to anyone else should they need it) to a new file, and stop/start xinetd, and bingo, SWAT is running. Thanks Michael! Charles Marcus I.T.
