The nature and location of the network super-daemon varies with the operating system

Both the above examples assume that the <filename>swat</filename> binary has been
located in the <filename>/usr/sbin</filename> directory. In addition to the above
SWAT will use a directory access point from which it will load all it's help files,
as well as other control information. The default location for this on most Linux
systems is in the directory <filename>/usr/share/samba/swat</filename>.

Access to SWAT will prompt for a logon. If you log onto SWAT as any non-root user
the only permission allowed is to view certain aspects of configuration as well as
access to the password change facility.

So long as you log onto SWAT as the user <command>root</command> you should obtain
full change and commit ability.

Blah blah here.
The SWAT title page provides access to the latest Samba documentation. The manual page for
each samba component is accessible from this page as are the Samba-HOWTO-Collection (this
document) as well as the O'Reilly book "Using Samba".
