- <title>INSTALLATION</title>
-
- <para>Swat is included as binary package with most distributions. The
- package manager in this case takes care of the installation and
- configuration. This section is only for those who have compiled
- swat from scratch.
- </para>
-
- <para>After you compile SWAT you need to run <command>make install
- </command> to install the <command>swat</command> binary
- and the various help files and images. A default install would put
- these in: </para>

- <title>Inetd Installation</title>
-
- <para>You need to edit your <filename>/etc/inetd.conf
- </filename> and <filename>/etc/services</filename>
- to enable SWAT to be launched via <command>inetd</command>.</para>
-
- <para>In <filename>/etc/services</filename> you need to
- add a line like this: </para>
-
- <para><command>swat 901/tcp</command></para>
-
- <para>Note for NIS/YP and LDAP users - you may need to rebuild the
- NIS service maps rather than alter your local <filename>
- /etc/services</filename> file. </para>
-
- <para>the choice of port number isn't really important
- except that it should be less than 1024 and not currently
- used (using a number above 1024 presents an obscure security
- hole depending on the implementation details of your
- <command>inetd</command> daemon). </para>
-
- <para>In <filename>/etc/inetd.conf</filename> you should
- add a line like this: </para>
-
- <para><command>swat stream tcp nowait.400 root
- /usr/local/samba/bin/swat swat</command></para>
-
- <para>One you have edited <filename>/etc/services</filename>
- and <filename>/etc/inetd.conf</filename> you need to send a
- HUP signal to inetd. To do this use <command>kill -1 PID
- </command> where PID is the process ID of the inetd daemon. </para>

- <title>LAUNCHING</title>
-
- <para>To launch SWAT just run your favorite web browser and
- point it at "http://localhost:901/".</para>
-
- <para>Note that you can attach to SWAT from any IP connected
- machine but connecting from a remote machine leaves your
- connection open to password sniffing as passwords will be sent
- in the clear over the wire. </para>

-
- <para><command>swat</command> will rewrite your <citerefentry>
- <refentrytitle>smb.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
- </citerefentry> file. It will rearrange the entries and delete all
- comments, <parameter>include=</parameter> and <parameter>copy=
- </parameter> options. If you have a carefully crafted <filename>
- smb.conf</filename> then back it up or don't use swat! </para>

- <title>AUTHOR</title>
-
- <para>The original Samba software and related utilities
- were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
- by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
- to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
-
- <para>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer.
- The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another
- excellent piece of Open Source software, available at <ulink url="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/">
- ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</ulink>) and updated for the Samba 2.0
- release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
- Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter. The conversion to DocBook XML 4.2 for
- Samba 3.0 was done by Alexander Bokovoy.</para>
