Are you sure the .rhosts files are correct (ie with the mixed case names)? Noel [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 06/02/2000 03:55:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (bcc: Noel L Yap) Subject: RE: "end of file from server" message (add'l info) Yes I'm sure -- and I think I just found the problem. The user names in the NT domain were entered with mixed case (don't ask me why), but users don't know this since NT doesn't enforce case sensitivity when you log in. The user accounts I created on the Linux server machine (the one with CVS on it) were all in lower case. I don't know what made me think of it, but I tried creating an additional username with mixed case that matched the case of the username in the NT domain, did a checkout, and it worked. Now, the next question is, can I get it to work without having to re-enter all the usernames on the Linux server? You cannot simply add the username to the CVSROOT variable like this: set CVSROOT=myname@CVSSERVER:/path to repository because CVS complains about the mixed case name (as logged in) not matching the one that's all lower case (specified in the CVSROOT variable). It says something like, "cannot log in as local user 'MyName', remote user 'myname' I guess I have no choice but to re-enter all the usernames on the Linux server. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Larry Jones [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 02, 2000 12:33 PM To: Dennis Jones Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: "end of file from server" message (add'l info) Dennis Jones writes: > > The server is a Linux box running cvs 1.10.6, and the client is NT 4.0 > running cvs 1.10 (and I am using the internal rsh protocol method of > connecting to the server). Are you sure you're using the internal rsh method on NT? CVS 1.10.6 has a bug in pserver mode that causes exactly this problem. -Larry Jones My "C-" firmly establishes me on the cutting edge of the avant-garde. -- Calvin This communication is for informational purposes only.
