Dear CVS users:
I am a newbie in this field. And I am trying to setup CVS on a Linux
Mandrake server, and maintain my codes through SSH by different PCs
including Win-XP and Linux system. (I followed a instruction on the
following link:
http://mariner.cs.ucdavis.edu/slackware/doc/applications/cvs-over-ssh.txt)
Now I did the following things in my server.
1) I have setup CVSROOT in my account "/home/cvs", and a repository
named "ABC" has been imported.
2) then I generate public key authentication for the cvs account by
ssh-keygen -b 2048 -t dsa
3) copy /root/.ssh/id_dsa.pub into the directory ""/home/cvs/.ssh2"
4) generate ".ssh2/authorization", and put the following two lines
into the file:
key id_dsa.pub
Options command="/usr/bin/cvs server",no-x11-forwarding
At the remote workstation with Debian Linux system, I did the following:
1) in .cshrc, add the following two lines
setenv CVS_RSH ssh
setenv CVSROOT :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs
2) Copy "id_dsa.pub" from the server and put it in the ".ssh2" directory.
3) echo "idkey id_dsa" > ~/.ssh2/identification
After I re-login to the remote workstation, and run:
cve checkout ABC
It return the following error info:
cvs [checkout aborted]: Cannot check out files into the repository itself
Please help what I was doing wrong in the above steps, and please give
me more suggestions if possible, many thanks.
Huaer
