1. Check to see if you have /etc/xinetd.d/swat - it should look like:

# default: off
# description: SWAT is the Samba Web Admin Tool. Use swat \
#              to configure your Samba server. To use SWAT, \
#              connect to port 901 with your favorite web browser.
service swat
{
         port            = 901
         socket_type     = stream
         wait            = no
#       only_from       = 127.0.0.1
         user            = root
         server          = /usr/sbin/swat
         log_on_failure  += USERID
         disable         = no
}

2. Did you restart extended internet services?  Check netstat to see 
if the service is running:

$netstat -a | grep swat
tcp     0       0       *:swat  *:*       LISTEN

3.  Point your browser to the proper port - in this case 901 - and 
login as root.
