I am attempting to use pserver with cvs (have been using rsh), but am having some problems. Any help is appreciated.
So far I have done the following - 1. added the following inet entries to the server machine in /etc/inet/inetd.conf - cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /opt/cvs/bin/cvs cvs -f --allow-root=/home/fullcirc/ARMDSYB/lexiscvs/lexis pserver in /etc/inet/services - cvspserver 2401/tcp # for cvs passwd auth server 2. forced inetd to reread its config file, and have tested the connection - listening on port 2401. 3. setup a cvs password file in $CVSROOT/CVSROOT with 1 user 'anonymous' and no password required. 4. attempt to log into the repository from a client machine, issuing this command cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@loneqlexprodora1:/home/fullcirc/ARMDSYB/lexiscvs/lexis login prompted for a password - (Logging in to anonymous@loneqlexprodora1) CVS password: which I then enter any password. The following error message is returned - cvs [login aborted]: unrecognized auth response from loneqlexprodora1: cvs pserver: No CVSROOT specified! Please use the `-d' option I'm not sure why this is so. I am specifying a CVSROOT via the -d option. I've also tried setting $CVSROOT, with no success. As I mentioned, I have been using this remote repository via rsh for a while, so I know the repository is ok. Thanks in advance for any suggestions, -Rob _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
