Swat and FC4 -

I have been trying to set up samba between my FC4 computer [Kernel
2.6.12-1.1447_FC4] and a newly acquired Dell running MS-XP without much
success.
Presently I am trying to get samba swat [installed via yumex this
morning] working but for whatever reason it won't run? I make the entry
for localhost:901 in Firefox but it "can not establish a connection" to
swat. I think I've made the needed additions to /etc/xinetd.d/swat
cat /etc/xinetd.d/swat
# default: off
# description: SWAT is the Samba Web Admin Tool. Use swat \
# to configure your Samba server. To use SWAT, \
# connect to port 901 with your favorite web browser.
service swat
{
disable = yes
port = 901
socket_type = stream
wait = no
only_from = 127.0.0.1
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/swat
log_on_failure += USERID
}
Is swat compatible with FC4? It appears that after entering the
localhost:901 in the browser I should get a login screen, but it's not
happening. If there's some common error I'm probably making it. Any
suggestion appreciated.
Thank you.
