Ok and thanks for clarifying that Andrew, but as that is the case, it 
raises a couple of further questions:
does swat work with samba4 and if so how do you use it?
I tried running the swat binary and going to http://192.168.0.10:901 but 
this does not work, I also tried https, this did not work either.
