samba permissions swat

I have been having a fun time to get Samba to work with permission problems. If I can solve the Swat problem maybe the other problems with access will go away. The client has an address of 192.168.20.201 which is defined in the Samba conf file.
Code:
FreeBSD is a registered trademark of The FreeBSD Foundation.

No locked files

When using swat I get the following message;
Code:
403 Forbidden
Samba is configured to deny access from this client
Check your "hosts allow" and "hosts deny" options in smb.conf

I had to add the following in /etc/hosts.allow because it keep telling me that I was not allowed to use Swat.
Code:
# Swat - Samba port 901
swat : 192.168.20. : allow
swat : 192.168. : allow
swat : ALL : deny

From /var/log/samba/.log I find the following when using Swat. There is nothing indicating any errors in any of the other log files.
Code:

Here is the /usr/local/etc/smb.conf
Code:
[global]
        workgroup = GROUP1
        server string = Samba Server
        security = SHARE
#       security = User 
        encrypt passwords = No
        map to guest = Bad User  
#       map to guest = Bad Password
        log file = /var/log/samba.log.%m
        max log size = 50
        dns proxy = No
        hosts allow = 192.168.20. 127.
        smb ports = 139
        log level = 4
        disable netbios = no


[homes]
        comment = Home directory for %u on %h
        path = /usr/home/%u/Docs
        valid users = %S
        read only = No
        browseable = No

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        printable = Yes
        print ok = Yes
        browseable = No

[public]
        comment = %h Shared Public Directory
        path = /storage2/public
        force user = nobody
        force group = wheel
        read only = No
        force create mode = 0666
        force directory mode = 0777
        guest ok = Yes
        public = yes
Where should I be looking for the problem?

Thanks!

I did a
# service samba stop
# portupgrade -rvf samba35
# service samba start
and now it works. Still can't access the server or shares because of permissions.

This is weird because a forced add of the package did not work.
