Hey everyone,
If anyone could help me with this problem, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Whenever I try to start swat (from the command-line by invoking
/usr/sbin/swat), it sits there for a very long time as if it's running,
but any attempt to use telnet to the port or point my browser at it
results in nothing, as if swat were just not running. Firewalling
is no
issue, I've disabled it. Swat ultimately dies after a few minutes
giving no output to the console other than "Alarm clock". What does
this error message mean?
I've tried running swat with -d 10 and "strace /usr/sbin/swat -o
myfile"
hoping that the output will mean more to someone else than it does to
me. I've seen other people with this problem googling around, but no
solution, and I can't seem to figure it out on my own.
Thanks in advance for the help,
bit

Have you tried using your browser with http://localhost:901/
Yes, and I get nothing. I can't recall the exact error message in
Firefox (and I don't have access to the machine at the moment), but
it's basically as if nothing is there whatsoever.
Sounds like I may *have* to run swat through xinetd.
Yes you have.
Networkservices, xinetd have to have swat enabled, *and* it has to have
a port assigned, which is 901. swats default port.
/etc/xinetd.d
----------------------
# SWAT is the Samba Web Administration Tool.
service smpnameres
{
enable = yes
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/swat
only_from = 127.0.0.1
log_on_failure = USERID
}
if smpnameres does not activate the port, replace it with swat...
