I think bakunin found the main problem. Here is some things to think about:
Lets work on the Samba problem first and then Swat.
From your earlier posts you have put smbd and nmbd in /etc/inetd.conf. That means they will be started when needed. Also your smbclient worked, that tells me samba is most likely working fine. The log.smb also indicates samba is working.
What I'm seeing in your email is that your "browsing" understanding and syntax is not quite right.
One way to test samba is to open Windows explorer and use the syntax, now don't flip the slash directions: \\192.168.0.144
Another way to test samba is to open Internet Explorer and type file://192.168.0.144 Again, do not flip the slash directions.
What are your results?
I will be unavailable for the next week. I will check when I get back on 4/21

MASKTEST(1) Test Suite MASKTEST(1)
NAME
masktest - Find differences in wildcard matching between Samba's implementation and that of a remote server.
SYNOPSIS
masktest {//server/share} [-U user%pass] [-d debuglevel] [-W workgroup] [-n numloops] [-s seed] [-a] [-E] [-M max protocol] [-f filechars]
[-m maskchars] [-v]
DESCRIPTION
masktest is a utility for detecting differences in behaviour between Samba's own implementation and that of a remote server. It will run
generate random filenames/masks and check if these match the same files they do on the remote file as they do on the local server. It will
display any differences it finds.
This utility is used by the Samba team to find differences in behaviour between Samba and Windows servers.
OPTIONS
-U user%pass
Specify the user and password to use when logging on on the shares. This parameter can be specified twice (once for the first server,
once for the second).
-s seed
Seed the random number generator with the specified value.
-n numops
Set the number of operations to perform.
-a
Print the operations that are performed.
-M max_protocol
Maximum protocol to use.
-f
Specify characters that can be used when generating file names. Default: abcdefghijklm.
-E
Abort when difference in behaviour is found.
-m maskchars
Specify characters used for wildcards.
-v
Be verbose
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 4.0 of the Samba suite.
