No, that's about it. I'm not sure what shell you are using, but in Bourne, Bash, and
Korn, you need to export environment variables for a child process to see them:
#!/bin/sh
CVS_CLIENT_LOG=/tmp/xxx
export CVS_CLIENT_LOG
cvs ... login
Should produce two files, /tmp/xxx.in & /tmp/xxx.out . The names are server relative
(YES, I know it's called a client log. This one's a pet peeve of mine - maybe I'll
fix it someday), so *.in is a full transcript of what went into the server (what was
sent by the client) and *.out is a full transcript of what was sent by the server
(what was read by the client).
And I know it was working under Linux in 1.10.8 and in an almost 1.11 dev version, so
you shouldn't be having any problems there.
Whoops. Just checked myself and CVS doesn't start writing to the client log until
after authentication, probably for the obvious reasons, but it does work under both
Linux & Windows in 1.11.
Anyway, I'd say your options are compiling a debug version under Windows and
attempting to trace the failed attempt or figure out what the difference between your
Windows & Linux CVSROOT specs are, since the Linux version worked. Is LOGNAME set
differently on the two machines? Try a CVSROOT with no variables in it. CVS
shouldn't be filling anything into CVSROOT on either platform, so if the problem lies
there you should be able to fix it on the command line.
Also, try again to make sure that handy's IP address is the same regardless of which
machine you look it up on.
