    Having a devil of a time getting SWAT up.

    I thought I selected it during install.

    /etc/services has the swat 901/tcp line - it is not commented out

    There is no /etc/inetd.d directory.

    There is a /etc/xinetd.d directory, but no swat file in it.

    I was unable to download the samba-swat rpm from the redhat site either via
    rpm ftp or via http from a web browser, but found it on CD #3 and:

    [root@ImediaArchive root]# rpm -ivh samba-swat-3.0.0-15.i386.rpm
    warning: samba-swat-3.0.0-15.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID
    4f2a6fd2

    [root@ImediaArchive root]# rpm -q samba-swat-3.0.0-15.i386.rpm
    package samba-swat-3.0.0-15.i386.rpm is not installed
    [root@ImediaArchive root]# rpm -e samba-swat-3.0.0-15.i386.rpm
    error: package samba-swat-3.0.0-15.i386.rpm is not installed
    [root@ImediaArchive root]# rpm -ivh samba-swat-3.0.0-15.i386.rpm
    warning: samba-swat-3.0.0-15.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID

    So, I can't install it cause it's already there, and I can't remove it cause
    it's not there...

    Anyway there now is a /etc/xinetd.d/swat, so I went in there and changed the
    disabled to "no"

    Question: is inetd.d the same as xinetd.d?

    I did a "kill -1 1178" where xinitd.d's PID was 1178, nothing at
    http://ImediaArchive:901 (no firewall btwn them)

    In /etc/xinetd.conf I added: "swat stream tcp nowait.400 root
    /usr/local/samba/bin/swat swat" but vi highlights the three words swat in
    yellow..

    kill -1 1178 again, but still nothing.

    What to do? I got SWAT up a few months ago really quickly on a Debian box
    (not that it solved all my SAMBA issues yet either) but this is overly
    frustrating on Fedora - what to do?
