[Samba] 400 Server Error - chdir failed - the server is not configured correctly

[Vipin Khushu]

Hi!

 

I am unable to get SWAT to work. The browser (Firefox) error message is
shown in the subject of this email. 

 

Here's what the various config files on my AIX system 4.3.3 running Samba
2.2.8.1 (downloaded from the Bull freeware site) look like :-

 

# cd /etc                                              

# more services|grep 901                               

swat            901/tcp                         #Samba

 

# tail inetd.conf

#netbios-ssn    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/samba/bin/smbd
smbd  

#netbios-ns     dgram   udp     wait    root    /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd
nmbd  

swat            stream  tcp     nowait.400      root    /usr/local/bin/swat

# netstat -an|grep 901


tcp        0      0  127.0.0.1.33037        127.0.0.1.901

tcp4       0      0  *.901                  *.*                    LISTEN


 

(The CLOSE_WAIT instances are when I tried to telnet to localhost on port
901 and got hung...)

 

 

 

What else should I check?

 

Please advise. 

 

Thanks
