Samba-swat will not allow logins after enabling xinet.d/swat and rebooting. The firewall is open for all samba programs and port 901 is also open.

Description : The samba-swat package includes the new SWAT (Samba Web Administration
            : Tool), for remotely managing Samba's smb.conf file using         your favorite Web browser.


How reproducible:
Open a web browser(I use Firefox (10.0.1) type in 127.0.0.1:901. Attempt to log in, login dialog disappears when clicking OK and after a short period of time reappears asking for the user ID and password again without showing any errors at all.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open firefox
2.type in 127.0.0.1:901
3.type in user IS and password in login dialog
  
Actual results:
Login dialog disappears for a couple of seconds and reappears!

Expected results:
Log into the web based samba administration GUI.

Please post your smb.conf file and make sure you have /etc/pam.d/samba.

I don't know if this was ever fixed in Fedora. I moved to ARCH when samba didn't work as intended, so I thought I'd report it.
I have the exact configuration in ARCH that I was going to use in Fedora and have no problems what so ever.

Sorry, guess I should have requested this bug to be closed since I don't use Fedora anymore.

So this bug can be closed.
