SWAT??

[Daniel McNamara]

More than likely the default firewall rules blocking it. Configure the
firewall to allow port 901 and it should be a lot happier. Also run a
netstat -tupan to make sure it is actually listening on that port (I take
it you also restarted xinetd to make the service available?)

Cheers
