I had a similar problem, and the only way I could get SWAT to come up
(I'm still not sure I should have to--what's name resolution for?) was
to use, in the swat file:
only_from = 127.0.0.1
instead of
only_from = localhost

Hi everyone,
In the last few days I've spended hours and hours on the web surching for a
solution to my problems. Eventhough it looked like there where several other
people having the same problem I couldn't find a way to solve it.
Therefore I'm hoping that one of you could help me with the following problem.
I've installed Samba 3.0.14a on RedHat 9.0. Samba is working perfectly.
But the problem lies with SWAT. When I type in my browser
"http://localhost:901"; I get the following error:
"Connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost:901"
My config files look like this:
--/etc/xinetd.conf--
#
# Simple configuration file for xinetd
#
# Some defaults, and include /etc/xinetd.d/
defaults
{
instances = 60
log_type = SYSLOG authpriv
log_on_success = HOST PID
log_on_failure = HOST
cps = 25 30
}
includedir /etc/xinetd.d
swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /usr/sbin/swat swat
----------------------------------------------------
--/etc/xinetd.d/swat----
# default: off
# description: SWAT is the Samba Web Admin Tool. Use swat \
# to configure your Samba server. To use SWAT, \
# connect to port 901 with your favorite web browser.
service swat
{
disable = no
port = 901
socket_type = stream
wait = no
only_from = localhost
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/swat
log_on_failure += USERID
}
--------------------------------------
and in my services I've added the line: "swat 901/tcp"
I'm not using a firewall.
So, the service samba is working fine, but when I start xinetd he failes.
"service xinetd status" then gives : "xinetd dead but pid file exists".
When I look into my /var/log/messages I come across the following statements:
-----------
Jul 6 15:12:33 localhost xinetd: xinetd shutdown failed
Jul 6 15:12:33 localhost xinetd[2456]: missing service keyword [line=20]
Jul 6 15:12:33 localhost xinetd[2456]: missing } in last service entry
[line=20]
Jul 6 15:12:33 localhost xinetd[2456]: 2456 {general_handler} (2456)
Unexpected signal: 11 (Segmentation fault)
Jul 6 15:12:33 localhost last message repeated 9 times
Jul 6 15:12:33 localhost xinetd[2456]: 2456 {bad_signal} Received 10 signals
in 1 seconds. Exiting...
Jul 6 15:12:33 localhost xinetd: xinetd startup succeeded
----------------
But I can't find the file where the "}" is missing in line 20.
I trully hope someone could help me with this because I really really want to
get this working.
I would be very thankfull, if you got some usefull info.
Thanks,
P.J. Wolters
