My distribution disks have only samba-2.2.5-10, samba-client-2.2.5-10
and samba-common-2.2.5-10.  I don't see a samba-swat listed.

The samba suite I installed was samba-8.0.1, which downloaded.  I just
now downloaded the samba-swat-8.0.1 version and did an install, but it
failed because I don't have libcrypto.so.4 and libssl.so.4.  Am I having
problems because I've mixed versions?
