Since I have not been able to get swat to work when I was installing webmin I noticed that it will configure samba! Are there any pros or cons to either one?

I have tried everything that I know of. I have reviewed the services file and the swat file in xinetd.d a tun of times. It appears, via netstat that swat is listening on port 901. However when I attempt to access it via the Mozilla browser on my Fedora server (with 127.0.0.1:901 or localhost:901) nothing happens. It just sits there. However, if I access it via webmin (which has swat stored

Hi, I'm setting up Samba on a RH ES linux machine. I have basic functionality working and can access a share from a Windows pc. I set up smb.conf manually. I'd like to use SWAT but when I try to run it I get the error: -- The connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost:901 -- I set up the xinetd configuration file exactly as I've seen online. Webmin works fine.

I just loaded Mandrake 7.1 and Samba with Webmin. I can get into Webmin and make changes to the Samba server, but I'm not able to get smbd or nmbd running. When I try to get into SWAT to make changes it keeps reverting back to my login which does not allow me to make changes. Is there a way to reset this? Also, any ideas on why smdb and smdb is not running? (go easy on me. I'm new to

As most of you would have noticed, we have now had 3 CVE-nominated security issues for SWAT in the past couple of years. At the same time, while I know many of our users use SWAT, we just don't have anybody to maintain it inside the Samba Team. Kai has made a valiant effort to at least apply the XSS and CSRF guidelines when folks make security reports, but by his own admission he isn't a

I am running RedHat 8.0 and Samba 2.2.6. I already provided a proper xinetd file and appointed port 901 in /etc/services. What am I still missing? -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

Hello All Samba-list Members, I have installed a Samba 2.2.7, the samba-latest.tar.gz, as a PDC on a Redhat8.0 GNU/Linux server. ( Of course, I first uninstalled the original samba that came with the Redhat installation CDs by rpm -e samba*.) The installation was successful. Then I modified /etc/services and /etc/xinetd.d/swat as suggested in the installation document uncompressed from

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.

Being a noob having something like webmin would be pretty cool swat has sort been swatted. In the many heads webmin would have a bigger reach than swat. So anyway been having a go. Apols but haven't done any hacking / dev for of 15 years! Also a complete noob to perl and doing it the video recorder way. Manuals Paaa!

Hi, I just installed a new Centos 6.1 machine with Samba 3.5.6-86.el6_1.4 . I use Webmin to administer the server and configuring Samba (SWAT is also available in Webmin). I have chosen the option to convert the Linux users to Samba users and the command completes and says the users have been converted. However, when I then look at the Samba users the list is empty. Restarted the Samba

I'm trying to use SWAT on my Compaq Tru64 UNIX v5.1 machine running Samba 2.0.7. I'm prompted for a username/password. I read in the docs to enter root with root's passwd. This does not work. I get login failed, retry. I never get authenticated. Any ideas? Thanks, Paul Gregory UNIX & Oracle Database Admin GE Nuclear Energy paul.gregory@gnf.com

Hi All, I have gained my basic Linux / Samba knowledge from using SME server (www.contribs.org) More recently I have started to use Trustix Linux to build servers for specific things for example as a print server. I installed Trustix and the most recent Cups/Samba rpm's from the repository (I am pretty sure they are the latest stable releases) but I can check version numbers if this helps.

If you're looking for a web admin tool Webmin has a pretty decent module that works well.

Martin, There is a great deal more that needs to be done other then the creation of a smb.conf file for setting up a PDC for any Windows workstations. Unfortunately, I only have experience with setting up a PDC for a mixed bag of Windows 9x, Windows NT 4.0 and Win2K systems. The only WinXP machine we utilize is one laptop, which is rarely ever attached to the corporate network. So,

I just setup a new server for a client and everything is running well. I added and setup all the users from the cli just because that's how I'm used to doing it. I tried using the samba gui that comes with CentOS 4.03 and I tried Webmin but nether one will add the user proberly to the tdbsam database. They add the user fine to the /etc/passwd file but samba does not get updated
