I had rh 6.1 installedon a p90 32m ram 1.2g hd. The hard drive died suddenly so I replace it with a 10 g drive. I also updated to rh7.1 when I re-installed. My problem is that swat will not run. I get an error message: unable to locate server localhost.
I had no problem with 6.1. Is there a reason for this to not work?
Thanks.

Maybe try adding or checking that /etc/hosts has
127.0.0.1 localhost
I think that's the correct syntax. The comments will tell you.
I noticed that lmhosts and smb.cfg are now in the /etc/samba directory. Is this correct or should they be moved into /etc? Or does it matter where they are.

I would suggest you leave them as is. Whatever directory they are in is most likely where they are expected to be.
Is the problem fixed?
Thanks for your responses.
first- no. I am not having much luck -yet. I also do not nave an inetd.conf file. I'll work on that now. There seem to have been a bunch of changes to 7.1 (thing that have moved). will update with progress.
Thanks again
