I am running apache 2.0.49 with samba 3.0.3-2 on my Gentoo system.
I have enabled the swat configurartion file in the xinet directory . Before
I did this I would get a rejections
when I atttempted the standard web browse of 192.168.1.163:901
now, When I try to access I get an empty document error. Any ideas.

This all seems to work nicely on Fedora Core2 system with same basic
versions of Samba and Apache.

pab

you're looking in the wrong place - not the distro nor version matters but
the configs - 99,9% sure Unfortunatelly I can't check them now

The reason I mentioned the distros, was to point out that the swat which is
part of Gentoo Samba ebuild is not set up to work out the box does not work
whereas the Fedora does. If we want Gentoo to be long term successfull, this
type of issue will have to be solved.

If it does indeed not work straight 'out of the box' you should report it
as a bug. If the samba maintainer for Gentoo does not know its broken,
they are unlikely to fix it.

However, that said, I have swat running here 'out of the box' and cannot
verify your problem. Mine works fine. Double check your settings and post
your configuration file.

Although I do not represent the Gentoo and am just a simple user
(previously Mandrake/RedHat/Fedora) and the Gentoo team might not be happy
with what I say, but Gentoo in no way is to replace or compete with
distros "out-of-the-box" - it does not use 'wizards' etc. Since it's
default installation is supposed to be built on the users machine from
stage1 - it is destined for different type of user. The same thing is with
e.g. Fedora - you may build and rebuild it from scratch using the rpmbuild
but it is destined for users that do not need this.
As an opposite to what you say that doesn't work (for you) in Gentoo - for
me neither in RedHat nor Fedora combing postfix+mysql+maildir never worked
, but in Gentoo it works almost "out-of-the-box". I'm building a fresh
Gentoo today on 1 of the boxes so I might check if it is a Gentoo bug or
rather user bug P.S.
I checked the ebuilds:
bash-2.05b$ ls /usr/portage/net-fs/samba/ ChangeLog metadata.xml
samba-3.0.1.ebuild samba-3.0.2a-r1.ebuild files
samba-2.2.8a.ebuild samba-3.0.1-r1.ebuild samba-3.0.2a-r2.ebuild
Manifest samba-3.0.0-r1.ebuild samba-3.0.2a.ebuild and I don't see any
"3.0.3-2." - are you sure you have that version?
