Q&A

Q I am trying to use SWAT, but I keep getting a message such as: "There was no response. The server could be down or not responding..." What is the problem?

A This sound like SWAT is not listening to connections, or you have used the wrong URL in trying to connect to SWAT.

Swat usually lives behind port 901, so the URL you should use is http://your.server.dom:901/, where your.server.dom should be replaced with the DNS name of your Samba server.

If you are still having problems, check to see that SWAT is listed in the /etc/services file and that /etc/inetd.conf has an entry for SWAT as outlined previously.
