If you are talking about samba, then you'd start it by it's own startup script (as it has been since at least 7.0) by typing '/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start' -- you can configure this to start automatically at boot-time via linuxconf (if you want GUI) or you can add via chkconfig (do man chkconfig for info). If you are talking about swat (samba's web admin tool), then you'd have to have a file named swat in /etc/xinetd.d/ -- since as of version 7.2, Mandrake switched from inetd, to xinetd. The swat file would need to contain: service swat { port = 901 socket_type = stream wait = no only_from = localhost user = root server = /usr/sbin/swat log_on_failure += USERID disable = no } Michael -- Michael Viron Registered Linux User #81978 Senior Systems & Administration Consultant Web Spinners, University of West Florida
