(Hey... forgot to mention that we've looked at the usual site..Google/cvs.ccvshome.org/etc... with mo real luck....)
Hi.... I'm trying to install CVS and CVSWEB on a Linux RH8.0 box. I'm running Apache. I think I have CVS working... but I'm not really sure!!! I have CVSROOT set to --> :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/CVS When I try to access CVSWEB from the web server, I'm getting an error indicating an error: ------------------------------------ Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log. ------------------------------------ within my /etc/profile, i have tried... CVSROOT="/CVS" # CVSROOT=":pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/CVS" # CVSROOT=":pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/CVS" # CVSROOT=":ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/CVS" within /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver.. i have service cvspserver { port = 2401 disable = no socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = root # passenv = PATH server = /usr/bin/cvs # env = HOME=/home/CVSROOT server_args = -f --allow-root=/CVS pserver } I'm also trying to install Cvsweb. My questions.... I understand that you really want SSH for the security... But if I use CVSROOT="ext....", do I need to change the cvspserver information, specifically the line that has pserver..??? If I don't use SSH... and just go with CVSROOT=\CVS, how does that change the line that has pserver??? How can I actually test this to make sure it works!!! Assuming I get this to work..what changes need to be made regarding CVSWEB. I try to get CVSWEB running and I get a log error saying that the cvsweb.cgi script is having an issue over an invalid character... I assume that I don't have CVS actually running correctly.... I'd like to basically insure that CVS is running.. and then get CVSWEB running... and then be able to access CVS via a remote server as well as a remote browser running CVSWEB.... Any help/pointers/comments/criticisms/etc.. will be greatly appreciated... If you've actually set this up and are willing to help walk me through this process, I'd appreciate it... If you provide me with your contact information, we'll give you a call back. We're trying to get a better understanding/feeling as to how this should be set up. We're trying to modify some docs for the www.gforge.org app and it uses CVS/CVSWEB.... Thanks for your time and for any help you can shed on this.....

I'm looking at seeting up CVS... I've seen some docs that state that you have to set up a .rhosts file for CVS. Can someone/anyone tell me why???? What purpose does it serve? Is there another way of setting up CVS without using the .rhosts file.... If it is indeed needed, can someone point to a detailed doc that actually describes in basic detail how to setup CVS. I have a Linux RH8.0 system...
