[GRLUG] swat

[Bob Kline]

Would the inetd.conf entry be the same for
xinetd.conf?  That's what I'm using - and
forgot to mention before.

I don't believe that the swat entry is in
/etc/services - why I don't know.  I can just
put it in?

Does this have to do with why localhost:901
doesn't work in Firefox?
