If you are talking about samba, then you'd start it by it's own startup
script (as it has been since at least 7.0) by typing '/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb
start' -- you can configure this to start automatically at boot-time via
linuxconf (if you want GUI) or you can add via chkconfig (do man chkconfig
for info).
If you are talking about swat (samba's web admin tool), then you'd have to
have a file named swat in /etc/xinetd.d/ -- since as of version 7.2,
Mandrake switched from inetd, to xinetd.
The swat file would need to contain:
service swat
{
port = 901
socket_type = stream
wait = no
only_from = localhost
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/swat
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
}
