I am attempting to configure swat for Samba configuration. I loaded Samba during a freash instal of Redhat 7.2.

All of my reading was indictaing I needed to edit the /etc.inetd.conf file to include:
swat stream tcp nowait.400 root usr/local/samba/bin/swat swat.
But I've learned that on RH 7.2 it is replaced by xinetd.conf/xinetd.d
Using the Samab home page I found how to add a swat file to xined.d. http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/swat.8.html

What I am missing is the /usr/local/samba/bin and /usr/local/samba/swat folders.

I looks like Samba installed in /etc/samba. But no swat folder their either. Only smb.conf, smbusers, and lmhosts.

This is the real confusing part because the other day I did another fresh install of RH7.2 but did NOT load Samba during install. I then loaded Samba using the binaries; e.g ./configure, make, make install. This series of steps did give me the /usr/local/samba/* folders. Needles to say I still could not get it to work, but also did not know about editing xinetd yet.

What am I missing?


Do I need to go back and reload the samba bin's?
