Hello, I have recently installed RedHat9 on my local server. It is meant to be a HTTP production server for my company.
In RH9, SWAT doesn't come as standard. I therefore tried to install the RPM package found on the red hat nerwork : - samba-swat-2.2.7a-7.9.0.rpm and samba-swat-2.2.7a-8.9.0.rpm I would like to report that both failed at installation. A dialog box opened saying : reading RPM headers, then disappeared. i looked at the installed RPM, samba-swat wasn't there. no swat file was to be found anywhere on my system. I therefore downloaded the samba 2.2.8a source distribution, compiled it and installed it. Here again I would like to report that the /packaging/RedHat/makerpms.sh returns an arror : `samba.spec' -> `/usr/src/redhat/SPECS/samba.spec' `samba-devel.spec' -> `/usr/src/redhat/SPECS/samba-devel.spec' Getting Ready to build release package -ba: unknown option Done. I think this is abnormal, since it takes no time and doesn't produce anything. So I went ahead with ./configure, make and make install. It installed smb in the non-redhat matter (/usr/local/sbin and bin and so on, instead of /usr/sbin & bin and so on). I had to COPY files over (and not move them, just in case). I edited the xinetd.d/swat file, and everything seems ok. Swat starts, smbd starts, nmbd starts. Samba works and reports the right version and so on. However, when I point my browser to http://127.0.0.1:901 I get the following : "The document contains no data" (this is mozilla talking in a dialog box). ( before installing swat, i got the message saying connection refused at http://127.0.0.1:901 . I assume i'm on the right track but something is missing ). I guess swat can't find the files it needs to display it's interface ? What do I do ? Is there a way to read 'swat' configuration to see where it pulls it's files from ?
