Ok, I have a windows xp laptop and a desktop running samba. The using samba
book I've downloaded talks about using swat as a web interface to creating a
configuration file. All the examples show going to
http://localhost:901
Can I use the windows xp laptop with internet explorer to go to lets say
http://192.168.0.102:901
Where 192.168.0.102 is the address of my samba server and then use swat, as
I haven't tried to figure out how to use lynx, or links yet and don't want
to deal with that just yet? Appreciate any info.

Yes, I have done this, but it has been quite a while. There is likely
some security setting in some config files that may only let you
connect from localhost. You need to find that and then it should
work. Sorry to be so vague, but maybe it will get you started.

Thanks, after a google I probably have to set the allow part to allow more
then just 127.0.0.1 in my xinetd.conf file, and I'm guessing that will allow
me to access from an outside network.

short answer,
of course you can.
make sure you have swat enabeled in /etc/inetd.conf and service entries
for it in /etc/services.
I've configured samba like that many times.

The swat config file restricts logins to localhost by default. You will need to edit it to permit access from a different host.
On Fedora you would find the swat config file under /etc/xinetd.d/.
