Access is fine from localhost:901 on the server

lsof -i returns: xinetd 2058 root 5u IPv4 4803 TCP *:swat (LISTEN)

netstat -tupan returns: tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:901 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 2058/xinetd

Firewall is not installed. Swat access worked "out of the box" with 8.1 Am I missing something obvious?

Well, I don't know how obvious it is, but it's the difference between 192.168.0.12 and 127.0.0.1. Localhost is the latter, and that will work, because that's permitted by /etc/xinetd.d/swat. If you want this to work using your normal IP address, you'll need to add it to that file. Just use a space to separate it, and if you don't want any other machines on the network to access it, use "192.168.0.12/32". Otherwise, it'd be "192.168.0.0/24". After changing, be sure to `/etc/init.d/xinetd reload'. Regards, dk -- David "Dunkirk" Krider, http://www.davidkrider.com Acts 17:28, "For in Him we live, and move, and have our being."
