What do you want to accomplish with your CVS installation?
I have a working CVS installation at RH 8. My installation is okay for
smallish setups, but I wouldn't want to run sourceforge on it :-O
Mine is of the variety:
- ssh-tunnelling only (I dumped xinetd-initiated pserver some time back)
- NO anonymous access ... which is to say that the CVS server will
authenticate them.
- for so-called 'outsiders' who do not have a login account here I create
dummy accounts without a 'real' login and I hand-edit their ssh
environment.
I use /etc/groups and 'set group ID' on directory permissions to
control access to various projects.
The hard part of this is helping people generate and edit their ssh
authorized_keys file with the correct incantation.. I usually just end up
doing it myself for them.
Contact me off-list if this sort of cvs tree is what you are interested
in, and I'll try to help you create one.
cheers,
denice
