Ok, did some more things:
a) recompiled with normal user (as opposed to being root)
b) reinstalled
c) adjusted my xinetd entry:
# default: on
# description: CVS Server
service cvspserver
{
flags = REUSE
disable = no
protocol = tcp
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
env = '$HOME=/CVS'
server = /usr/bin/cvs
server_args = -f --allow-root=/CVS pserver
log_on_success += DURATION USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
}
d) reloaded xinetd
And I still get:
cvs server: cannot open /root/.cvsignore: Permission denied
cvs [server aborted]: can't chdir(/root): Permission denied
Now I'm lost.
For the record, I also tried changing the 'user' variable to the
'cvs' user, and that gave me a setuid error. (the user 'cvs' exists,
and it also owns '/CVS' and everything underneath that.)
Let's see what other suggestions I can find in the archives. -f
doesn't seem to like me very much.
