processes that don't die (cvs pserver)
Hello All, I am running CVS 1.10.7 in pserver mode, but Every time a developer accesses CVS (developers use WinCVS as client program) the cvs process keeps running even after the client has exited. After some time these processes die, but sometimes the process table of the server gets full due to too many cvs "ghost" processes still running. Has anyone had this problem before? Is there a solution for it ?(will upgrading to a newer CVS version help?) Thanks in advance, Joao. -- "Where shall I begin, please your Majesty?" he asked.

I'm working on a fix for this problem (this is just a specific case of a more general problem). In the meantime, about all you can do is to manually edit the CVS/Entries file and remove the defunct subdirectory. -Larry Jones My "C-" firmly establishes me on the cutting edge of the avant-garde. -- Calvin

No, you need to get the latest CVS (1.10.8) from www.cvshome.org. -Larry Jones Ever notice how tense grown-ups get when they're recreating? -- Calvin

History file and cvs tag
I would like to have CVS create an entry in the history file whenever a cvs tag command is issued. Currently tag events are only added to the history file when cvs rtag is used. Is anyone aware of a patch to CVS that already adds cvs tag command logging? If not, I'll be creating this patch myself. TIA, - Tim Taylor

OK, I've removed the "\" and it's working now. Thank you. It's a shame that the "\" was in the documentation.

error when using password authentication
Hi everyone! Yesterday I installed RedHat 6.1 on a box and tried to add CVS to it. I went to http://rufus.w3.org/linux/RPM/redhat/6.2/i386/cvs-1.10.7-7.i386.html and downloaded the package. I installed the package and tried to connect from a Windows machine using WinCVS. I got an error message which I found out indicated that inetd.conf was missing the right entry. So I added the following line to inetd.conf: cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/cvs cvs --allow-root=/usr/cvsroot pserver [all on one line] and another line to /etc/services cvspserver 2401/tcp Then I try to telnet my server. This works but I do not get the "bad auth protocol" message. I get some cvs command line help telling me how to use cvs. (Usage ..) I did also create a passwd file in /usr/cvsroot/CVSROOT and copied a encrypted password When I try to login with WinCVS, I get the following output: cvs login (Logging in to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) cvs [login aborted]: recv() from server 192.168.0.200: Connection reset by peer I have the following CVSROOT set in my preferences: :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/cvsroot By the way: when I use the wrong username or the wrong password nothing changes. Thanks for you help!
