<grin> no flames from me, good friend.  You're not emailing the group, but
me as an individual.  I will send the conversation out to the group though,
along with my comments:

SWAT requires you to:

configure /etc/hosts
configure /etc/lmhosts
enable SWAT in /etc/services
  and in /etc/inetd.conf
configure /etc/hosts.allow
configure /etc/hosts.deny       (ALL:ALL)
then type in #killall -HUP inetd
then, from a browser on one of the clients type in http://192.168.1.1:901
and a box should pop up asking for my username and password.

After all of this, I should be able to configure SAMBA (according to the
guide I'm readng), but I'm stuck at the browser box coming up and asking for
my username & password.

Dave
