Hello, Until yesterday (7 nov 03) I had a mostly working 2.27 samba
running on my redhat 9 box that I configured via SWAT. Now I can not get
back into SWAT & I also (in a useless attempt to make it work) upgraded
to samba 3.0 I get the following when trying to start SWAT:
An error occured while loading http://matrix1:901/:
Could not connect to host matrix1 (port 901)
here is my /etc/hosts file:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain matrix1
192.168.2.147 philip

0.0.0.0 ads.osdn.com
0.0.0.0 claria.com
0.0.0.0 www.gator.com
Also /etc/services does have the correct port 901 set up &
/etc/xinetd/d/swat

# allows an administrator to configure Samba using a web
# browser interface, with the URL http://localhost:901
service swat.

I dont't know if this is related but,my trouble started yesterday after
I actually got vnc-server working. I just left it at default so it
started on matrix1:1 I went to work (yes I puched a hole through
turtlefirewall just for this) & connected from my laptop at work via vnc
to the redhat box. I did not do anything & then jsut logged off. when I
got home I had to reboot the redhat box becuase konq would not work.
Kept complaing aobut something like the DHOCP server or other could not
be contactacted/(connected?). Well SWAT has not worked ever since. Now
the samba 2.7 still worked with a manual start, but this morning I did a
rpm -U| to 3.0 & now that too is not working Any help ir direction
pointing would be greatly appreciated.
