Swat on RH 8?

[johnzan]

I am trying to set up Samba on a RH 8 Server and I am having trouble. It appears that Swat is not even being installed or I am looking in the wrong places for it or the config files for it. I am a total newbie if you can't tell. help to many years in a microsoft world have softend my brain...:confused: Also any suggestions on good books for a lifelong windows network wonk who want to learn Linux Networking.

Install samba-doc rpm. After you install it you can type this:

mozilla `rpm -ql \`rpm -q samba-doc\`|grep index.html`

This should display the first page of Using Samba. You can replace mozilla with netscape, konqueror , links or lynx.

Bookmark the Using Samba page.

It's the only book you need.

Thanks, never did get swat to work but was able to get samba working. Threw me a few curves but I muddled thru.
