How do you know it's installed? Do you have the xinet.d/swat
file? Do you have the swat executable installed in the right
location specified in the xinet.d/swat file? ie: server = /usr/sbin/swat

Did you restart xinetd? If you did, then check the logs to see if
it's starting or not.

Yes, xinet.d/swat is there and the executable is installed in the right place as specified in the xinet.d/swat file.

I restarted xinetd and the logs do not show anything wrong.
