"only_from = 127.0.0.1"

It looks like this option is only allowing users to access swat from the localhost (127.0.0.1).

You will need to change this option.

Hello,

I am not able to access SWAT from any other host besides the one running
the SWAT daemon.

No firewall blocking access on either side.

# netstat -lnt | grep 901
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:901 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN

works fine connecting from localhost using:
lynx localhost:901

Unavailable using public IP on a remote host.. i.e. going into Firefox and
http://1.2.3.4:901

SWAT is configured through xinetd:

# cat /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       = 127.0.0.1
       user            = root
       server          = /usr/sbin/swat
       log_on_failure  += USERID
}

TIA,
