i've got SWAT installed in the hopes that it'll help me get
samba doing what i want it to do, without drowing in the dark
swamp of samba documentation and configuration syntax rules.
with zero luck. grab the clue stick, i need it real bad! :(
/etc/xinetd contains:
service swat
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/tcpd
server_args = /usr/sbin/swat
bind = 127.0.0.1
only_from = 127.0.0.1
wait = no
}
here's a relevant snippet of "ps afx" before trying a connect:
4900 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/xinetd
4944 tty1 S 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty1
(i.e. xinet hasn't spawned any children just yet...)
now i try
$ lynx http://localhost:901
HTTP request sent; waiting for response.
and i wait for a couple of minutes, which yield nothing, and I
ctl-Z to get to the shell again:
[1]+ Stopped lynx http://localhost:901
noting that uptime has blasted through the roof, i try ps afx
again:
4900 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/xinetd
6693 ? R 1:52 \_ tcpd /usr/sbin/swat
4944 tty1 S 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty1
1:52? that seems awfully taxing for no output...
$ dpkg -l samba samba-common smbclient swat smbfs
||/ Name Version
+++-=============-==========
ii samba 2.0.7-3.4
ii samba-common 2.0.7-3.4
pn smbclient <none>
ii swat 2.0.7-3.4
pn smbfs <none>
what have i missed? (the only occurrence of 'swat' in /var/log/*
is in the instances where i'd had the wrong syntax in
xinetd.conf which kept swat from being launched at all...)
