[LI] A doubt about configuring Samba.....

["Pankaj Mathur" <matsulsan@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
this is just a doubt about configuring Samba server. somebody on this list 
made reference to http://www.redbooks.ibm.com for the same. I found this 
article quite useful. Recently I came across an even more simplified version 
written by Atul Chitnis at www.pcquest.com/linux/office.asp. This article 
seems to be wholesome except that over and above what is mentioned in that 
article I could'nt get Samba working till I added a line to "inetd.conf" 
which reads as "swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /usr/sbin/tcpd swat" and had 
to restart inetd with " /etc/rc.d/init.d/inet reload". Only after doing the 
last two steps I could make samba functional on my machine. Any comments if 
the steps mentioned are required or not (if not then what is the alternate 
approach to get samba working).
bye
