[GRLUG] swat

[Bob Kline]

Kubuntu 6.06
Samba package installed
A "127.0.0.1 localhost" entry in /etc/hosts

When I try to run "http://localhost:901/"  (swat) in
Firefox,  I get an error saying "unable to connect".
The reasons given make no particular sense.
Firefox is working fine,  so I presume there are
no firewall issues.

I enter "type -p swat",  and /usr/sbin/swat is
returned.  It really is there.

I enter "netstat -antp",  and there is an entry
"127.0.0.1:631",  but no "127.0.0.1:901".  I take
it that means that nothing is listening for a
samba connection?

Not being able to run http://localhost:901/,
there is understandably nothing in /etc/xinetd.conf
to speak of.

Any hints here,  maybe from someone with
a working setup on Kubuntu or Ubuntu 6.06?
The key is probably why http://localhost:901/
doesn't work,  but if I knew the answer to that
I wouldn't be here.....  :-(
