I've never used swat before, but based on your own diagnostics, have you 
checked the following:

- The swat service is actually running?  ( i.e. 'ps ax | grep swat' )
- If so, have you verified that it is actually listening?  ( 
i.e. 'netstat -ant | grep 901)
- Also, this might be an ignorant question, but what is the significance of 
port 631?  According to my services file, it is IPP (Interenet Printing 
Protocol)
