Hey John, here is what I asked yesterday:::::::
*******************************************************************************************
Hello list!
Been contemplating the idea of joining for a long time,,,,,,,so it's good
to be here.
Well I guess now is as good a time as any to pose a question. After
reading the Faq's, I didn't find the answer......
Question: when opening the browser to view xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:901 the
error "the directory is empty" comes up. I have xinetd .d loaded,
started, chkconfig --level 35 swat on ,,,,,,, testparm says things
are there....... Samba is loaded, /usr/sbin has the daemon, nmbd and
smbd are started,, web server works, no restrictions.......(apache 2) rpm
-qa show samba and swat both installed........
I need to take a step back and think for a bit, because I am confused,
just want to use SWAT.
Any help is appreciated!
Have a good day.
***************************************************************************************
So today in /etc/xinetd.d/swat I changed the value from localhost to the
static IP address and now 901 has a non null directory.
cheers
Thanks--

Ok. Here is a response. We all saw your request yesterday, but put
yourself in our position. How would you answer?
>From your posting it is not at all clear:
1. What is your platform?
2. What version of Samba?
3. Is this from a publicly available binary package?
- if so, how did you install it?
- what did you install?
4. Did you build the package yourself?
- if so, how did you install it?
- what did you do to enable SWAT?
5. What have you done so far to try to trace the cause of the problem?
When I see a posting like yours my observation is that you have not done
anything to help us to help you. Sorry to be so blunt.
