I have installed the binary version of samba-2.2.3a for RH7.2  and checked /etc/services that swat is located there. I have also set up the swat file in xinetd.d. When I tried to use swat with my browser nothing comes up. What am I doing wrong?

Having just gone through a bunch of documentation on this topic, and
actually having used a .src.rpm to good effect, this is not quite 
correct.

kernel-2.4.7-10.src.rpm is the package you would use to rebuild the
various binary kernel-2.4.7-10.xxx.rpms. It puts the sources in 
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCE/... which is the work area for the rpm build
suite. If you play with them there, you mess up the rpm build area.
Normally, you do NOT want to drag in the .src.rpms!

kernel-source-2.4.7-10.i386.rpm and kernel-headers-2.4.7-10.i386.rpm
(note the .i386.) are the distributed sources that you can use to
build a custom kernel

NOTE: Red Hat has put out a number of kernel updates. The most recent 
is 2.4.9-21. You can get them from ftp.redhat.com under 
/pub/redhat/linux/updates/7.2/en/os/* or from updates.redhat.com 
/7.2/en/os/*. You may have to update some other packages if you
update your kernel.

If you want to live dangerously, check out /pub/redhat/linux/rawhide
on ftp.redhat.com...
