I have Samba and swat set up on a RH 7.0 box. it is a 486DX66, 36MB ram,
20gigHD. everytime I attempt to access swat, my WebBrowser will connect
and then wait FOREVER, (will not timeout, it connects and just keeps
waiting for a reply), and the log file will look something like this,
(this is probably going to wrap horribly, I have edited it to make it as
brief as possible):

Does this mean anything to anyone? Samba is working, (I can see 1
share), and swat is setup according to the docs I could find and the
stuff I found in this group's mail archives.
my /etc/xinetd.d/swat file looks like:

# default: off
# description: SWAT is the Samba Web Admin Tool. Use swat \
#        to configure your Samba server. To use SWAT, \
#        connect to port 901 with your favorite web browser.
service swat
{
 port             = 901
 socket_type = stream
 wait             = no
 only_from    = 10.90.0.0/32
 user             = root
 server          = /usr/sbin/swat
 log_on_failure += USERID
}

and the /etc/services file has the following entries:
.
.
.
swat  901/tcp     # Samba Web Administration Tool
swat  901/udp    # Samba Web Administration Tool
.
.
.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this working?
I can not attempt to access swat from the local machine since it does
not have a browser or x-windows installed on it.

Thanks
