TARGET = I want to connect to a CVS installed on a Solaris through
a wincvs front End running on a NT m/c.
ERROR = I can't configure CVS on SOLARIS 2.6. Login
Faliure [ Within the solaris - itself ].
Please send me a correct Manual for installation and advice.
Here is what I did so far:
CVS Version I am using:
Concurrent Versions System
(CVS) 1.11 (client/server)
Copyright (c) 1989-2000
Brian Berliner, david d `zoo' zuhn, Jeff Polk, and other authors
What I did:
step 1: gzip -d cvs-1.11-sol8-sparc-local.gz
step 2: pkgadd -d cvs-1.11-sol8-sparc-local
cvs got added to /usr/local/bin
step 3: Created a user (& group)
called: cvs
step 4: Created a repository:
cvs -d /usr/local/cvsroot init
step 5: Changed owner and group of
repository and all files to cvs:
chown -R cvs.cvs /usr/local/cvsroot
step 6: Created a tcp service by editing
/etc/services - add line (NOTE: May already be present):
cvspserver 2401/tcp #CVS PServer
step 7: Created a inetd entry
for service by editing /etc/inetd.conf - add following lines:
#
# CVS PServer
#
cvspserver stream tcp nowait cvs /usr/bin/cvs cvs --allow-root=/usr/local/cvsroot
pserver
step 8: Restarted inetd
step 9: Then logged in as the user cvs. [ I added a passwd file on to /usr/local/cvsroot/CVSROOT]
step 10: I set
the default repository in the environment
setenv CVSROOT :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/cvsroot
[ cvs is the unix user and password is the same as the user name ]
step 11: Login:
cvs login
This is what I am getting;
iNet:/usr/local/bin>cvs login
(Logging in to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: recv() from server 204.143.101.100: EOF
iNet:/usr/local/bin>
OR
Connection reset by peer
OR
broken pipe
Thanks in advance.
