Hello Everyone, I'm using Mandrake 10 and trying to learng Samba 3.0.2a. I compile the source and install it alright on my Mandrake linux (./configure, make, and make install). Here what I'd done after the installation: Add to /etc/services file swat 901/tcp Add to /etc/inetd.conf file swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /usr/local/samba/sbin swat Since swat binary in the

I was playing with this on my test machine, (redhat 5.2, samba 2.0.3) worked great, and I was really impressed. So I decided to install this on my office machine. (redhat 4.2, samba 2.0.3) and the only significant difference is that on the office machine, I use encrypted passwords. I cannot get swat to authenticate on the second machine. That is, no matter what account, password combination

I've just downloaded and installed the SAMBA binaries for HPUX 10.20. I'm been unsuccessful in getting swat to run though. I've made the correct entries in the /etc/services file (swat 901/tcp) and in the /etc/inetd.conf file (swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /opt/samba/bin/swat swat) and have shutdown and restarted the inetd daemon. When I use Netscape and access

The only docs I found on getting SWAT to run, showed editing the inetd.conf file. As this version of RH (7.3) only uses xinetd things don't fit exactly. I have gone through and did everything that one should do for inetd and it still will not work. I don't normally use the thing, but this client will need the more simplistic interface to add shares, etc.

Hello all, I just installed 3.0.24 in AIX5.3 using installp binaries. The install went well, and I can connect to shared directories from Windows. When I try to log in to the SWAT tool, it does not accept the password of any userid that I try with, including root. I don't recall having to do anything special to use SWAT on my older servers running SAMBA 2.2.8. I have added the following

Hi There I need help on setting up swat 3.0.0 on RedHat 7.1. I've got xinetd installed but not inetd and can't find configuration to setup swat on xinetd. Do I need inetd and where do I get it from. New in the game so please be pasient Anton

Hello, I am running a small network, Win., FreeBSD (Unix), & Macs., administering through SWAT. Needing to run an intranet I installed an Apache 1.3 HTTP server running in standalone mode. Now I have lost the ability to access SWAT through the http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:901 port. Guess it requires some special configuration of the server - SWAT runs in inetd mode, will this cause a conflict?

Hello, I'm using Suse Linux v 7.0 Professional. I successfuly compiled Samba v 2.2.2 with the command : ./configure \ --with-pam --with-tdbsam --with-winbind \ --with-acl-support --with-smbwrapper All works except SWAT ! However, I checked if the line "swat 901/tcp" is in the file /etc/services and it's in order My file /etc/inetd.conf contains the line : swat stream tcp

No matter what I try, I cannot get SWAT to work. No, I'm new to solaris, so maybe I'm not doing something that should be done prior to trying to use SWAT. Samba does seem to be working, somewhat. I can connect to a share using the smbclient on the same solaris system that I installed samba on....but I cannot connect to the share on the solaris system with my Windows XP system. Since it is

Is there any way to run swat from the command line instead of starting it from inetd? I'm trying to add some features (mostly, I want to make a backup of the smb.conf file before commiting a new one) and I want to run swat from inside of gdb. Is there a way to start swat in the foreground and have it listen on port 901? Thanks in advance, George Cebulka Senior System

Hello, Until yesterday (7 nov 03) I had a mostly working 2.27 samba running on my redhat 9 box that I configured via SWAT. Now I can not get back into SWAT & I also (in a useless attempt to make it work) upgraded to samba 3.0 I get the following when trying to start SWAT: An error occured while loading http://matrix1:901/: Could not connect to host matrix1 (port 901) here

Hi, I'm having a minor issue with swat on red hat 7.2. It won't let me make any changes to the samba server (adding shares, printers, and global definitions). The buttons to access these simply don't exist. I can view status, but I can't make any changes (not even restart the daemons). This works fine on my Debian system. The only real difference that I can think of is inetd

Hi all, I have installed a CentOS7 vm in my home server with all graphical tools installed: Gnome, Chrome, Tor Borwser, etc. My idea is to run these graphical applications from two MacOSX desktops. What I am looking for is something similar like Microsoft RDP services that supports copy and paste between client and server, sound, clipboard, etc ... I have seen a possible solution using xrdp:

What's the deal with SWAT authentication? I have a Freebsd 4-Stable box running SWAT from the Samba 2.0.7 port and I can log into SWAT as a regular user (ie, not root but has a smbpasswd entry) and make any changes I want to the smb.conf file -- which is 0644 root.wheel. I'm presuming this is because my inetd.conf entry for SWAT has it running as root as per the example. Is this how

Since I've upgraded to Redhat 7.2 I cannot get swat to work, I am using the 2.4.7-10 kernal with samba 2.2.7 installed. I have checked all the applicable files, edited them accordingly as per Gary Fournerat's excellent How-to. No joy. I am pretty certain this is an xinetd issue. I never had this difficulty with inetd. I know that SAMBA is running as I can see the server from this

Hi there, I have a problem when I try to create a new user with swat. I use binaries of Samba 2.2.2 coming from www.samba.org, or from www.sunfreeware.com on Solaris 2.6 and on 8. I compiled the sources and the result is the same. When I click on "Add New User" (Server Password Management), I receive a nearly blank page: I can only see the samba gif on top and the user is not

Hello, I want to run swat on my fbsd 4.4 box, but i do not want to run it via inetd. Is there a way i can start swat in standalone mode?

Dear list; I have been using samba 1.9.18p10 on a Sun Sparc Ultra 2 for about a year. I use it to share a directory to an NT/95 network. I now have a Sun Sparc Ultra 10 running Solaris 2.6. In order to prepare the Ultra 10 for y2k I downloaded samba-2.0.6-nonis+-sparc-sun-solaris2.6.pkg.gz from
