I have just installed Mandrake 8 on a server. This server basically just
shares an internet connection. I used Mandrakes Internet Sharing program to set this up. Now im trying to set up SAMBA. Mandrake 8 automatically sets this up for you. But you still have to do some fiddling around to configure for your certain use. Well i can see the linux box on Network Neighborhod, but when i try to access it up comes a password box for a connection to IPC, well i typed in the root password and its says wrong password. Well then i said i will try SWAT which configures samba. When i try to use swat from any other machine besides the server it self i get an error message of Network Connection Error Connection reset by peer. But if i use swat from linux box itself it works fine. Im using xinetd instead of inetd. The /etc/services file is set up correclty. I think this might be a firewall problem, not a swat or samba problem? Here is an entry from my /var/log/auth.log Sep 11 18:50:09 localhost xinetd[19828]: FAIL: swat libwrap from=192.168.0.16 Here is my hosts.allow and deny entryies hosts.allow swat:LOCAL,194.7.51., 10.1.1. hosts.deny swat:ALL Are those set up correclty, also my /etc/hosts has an entry for localhost.localdomain 127.0.... Also my /etc/xinetd.d/samba file looks like
this
service
swat
{ port = 901 socket_type = stream wait = no only_from = 192.168.0.16 user = root # server = /usr/sbin/swat server = /usr/sbin/tcpd server_args = /usr/sbin/swat log_on_failure += USERID disable = no } If this is a firewall problem, how do i fix it. This was all set up by the Mandrake 8 Inernet Sharing Program and im somewhat unfamiliar with the firewall and its configuration files. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ira Bargon |
