This is a brief description of how to use the Samba Web
Administration Tool on your machine.
Launching
---------
To launch SWAT just run your favourite web browser and point it at
http://localhost:598/
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.
You should be prompted for a username/password when you connect. You
will need to provide the username "root" and the correct root
password.
Running
-------
Just follow your nose! If you can't work out how to use it then maybe
you should use "vi smb.conf" instead.
WARNINGS
--------
SWAT will rewrite your smb.conf file. It will rearrange the entries
and delete all comments, include= and copy= options. If you have a
carefully crafted smb.conf then back it up or don't use SWAT!
Development
-----------
Please join the samba-technical mailing list if you want to discuss
the development of SWAT. Note that this list is for technical developer
discussions and is not a general help list.
