hi, everyone, I am a newbie to the CVS. I encountered an error whiling installing and configuring the CVS under Cygwin. My OS is windows 2003 Server and Logon with my Domain Account: hfrank. I downloaded and installed ALL components being accessible from Cygwin Mirror site. So, I think my Cygwin is a full-functional Cygwin.
Then, I do the commands like: (1) mkpasswd -d > /etc/passwd, mkgroup -d > /etc/group (2) /usr/bin/iu-config -y (3) add the "cvspserver tcp/2401" into the WINNT/system32/driver/etc/service add "cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /bin/cvs cvs --allow-root=/var/cvs pserver" (4) inetd --install-as-service and start the service (5) export CVSROOT=/var/cvs (6) cvs init, and the /var/cvs/CVSROOT/* are created automatically without errors (7) I create the /var/cvs/CVSROOT/passwd file like : Administrators::Administrators hfrank::hfrank cvsuser:7T6EfeWS:hfrank (8) Everything looks well . But , when I try to connect the cvs server with WinCVS, like: pserver:cvsuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/cvs login and pserver:hfrank:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/cvs login, the error message "setuid failed: Permision denied" was returned from the server. "pc-230" is the computer name of the Server. But i can login the server from another cygwin environment correctly. I will appreciate any hints and help on this issue. Thanks in advance.
