hi,
after some configuration changes here is the output from the jCVS client
connection test
CVSClient.SENDLine: 'BEGIN AUTH REQUEST'
CVSClient.SENDLine: '/imiwebdb/dynamodata/cvsroot'
CVSClient.SENDLine: 'dynamo'
CVSClient.SENDLine: 'Aea=ed<1"o'
CVSClient.SENDLine: 'END AUTH REQUEST'
CVSClient.READLine: 'cvs pserver: No CVSROOT specified! Please use the
`-d' option'
AUTHENTICATE: REPLY: 'cvs pserver: No CVSROOT specified! Please use the
`-d' option'
I get the same response if I telnet to the port i.e. The connection
terminates immediately with the
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
cvs pserver: No CVSROOT specified! Please use the `-d' option
cvs [pserver aborted]: or set the CVSROOT environment variable.
Connection closed by foreign host.
My question is: Why does the cvs pserver command require a CVSROOT variable
to be set if it gets this from the client connection?
TIA
Duncan

Does that include a newline? If you telnet to the port and hit return,
you should get:
cvs [pserver aborted]: bad auth protocol start:
If you don't, there's something wrong with your CVS executable. I'd
suggest downloading the current version (1.11.1p1) from www.cvshome.org.
