Is there anything special to do to get swat to work?

I installed samba/swat.  I went and enabled swat as an xinetd service
and restarted xinetd.  Netstat shows xinetd on port 901.


jim@keelie $ sudo netstat -tap
...
tcp  0  0  *:swat  *:* LISTEN  17500/xinetd


If I try to browse to http://localhost:901/ I get an empty page right
away. I tried telnet the connection is instantly closed:

jim@keelie $ telnet 127.0.0.1 901
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

Is there something special to do for swat under Gentoo?

Where did you find swat to install? Last time I checked, swat is not 
available in portage or even on Freshmeat.

It is a part of Samba.  Just add it swat as a USE flag and samba will
be built with swat.

Now if I can only get it to work ; )

That got it wokring.  Now I just need to figure out how to add a user
to swat since it didn't like root.

Thanks,
