SWAT == S-amba W-eb A-dministration T-ool
It allows you to configure your Samba installation as you would like.
Open a GUI web-browser, then point it at:
http://localhost:901
Log in as root if you get a login dialog. If you don't, then it just
means at one point you DID install "samba and swat". If you have since
removed it, the inetd server has not been restarted. If you do get a
dialog box, and you successfully get in, look around on it, you will be
pleasantly surprised.
And it just means that inetd is *LISTENING* it is not running, unless
you connect to it... or unless of course you removed it.
To see if you have then installed:
dpkg -l | grep -e samba -e swat
You may see that you do have them installed.
