That's it, I just also have to login using a password rather than my private/public key pair. As I revisit this, I note however, that this is not sufficient. I'm trying to set up automated testing, so I couldn't enter the password if I wanted to - even saving to a file and attempting to echo it to ssh doesn't work because ssh grabs the TTY to get the password. I really need to use public key authentication, but this prevents SSHD from grabbing the Windows authentication tokens. I think maybe this is a Windows (combined with SSHD?) limitation that I cannot get any access to network resources without authenticating with a password? I don't know if this helps in your situation, but if you are always testing from the same machine you could have a persistent connection to some share on empress using oberon's password. Any subsequent access to any share on empress will automatically use this user/password without prompting for it. That is, it is sufficient to simply run: net use * \\empress\oberon But then if you do this you might as well make the original connection you want as persistent and never even bother with net use in your script. (On W2K, at least, it doesn't even seem possible to use a password from STDIN.) That doesn't work. As near as I can tell now based on my experiments and reading, my problem is that I am attempting to launch the tests via an automated ssh connection from another computer. SSHD on Cygwin does user-switching, but only gets Windows auth tokens if you use your Windows password to login. Since I can't use a password with ssh from an automated script, I cannot get Windows auth tokens, and without Windows auth tokens, Windows won't let me see or mount, _any_ network share, not even a share that allows anonymous connections.

Does logging into sshd without a password, using a key instead, merely mean that no switch from this default sshd user occurs? If that's the case, can we adjust the default user that sshd runs as? Yes, according to the email archives I have found, I could run as my cvs test user rather than LOCAL_SYSTEM or whatever the sshd account is by default, but it would limit me to logging into the machine via ssh as only the cvs test user, something else I am trying to avoid. I could also, possibly, set up the generic SSHD on one port and the cvs test SSHD on another. So far I am avoiding this because according to the mailing lists and the one time I tried it, there are some permissions issues in the DLLs that I am both reluctant to dive into with my level of Windows expertise.

We applied the patch without a problem to cvs-1.11.5. You need the patch for both server and clients, but as far as I know, cvsnt (at least the version shipped with WinCvs1.3 B) has it applied already. On the server, we have a commitinfo script which does a cvs watch on (or actually, it directly changes the CVS/fileattr file directly with the same effect) for added files that match certain extensions. This means that we do not enforce locking on all files, but only on a small subset (a few % of the files) we think it is needed on. This gives you the versatility of CVS everywhere, and locking only at a few places where you really want it.

Re: Original CVS Shell Scripts
Release 3.0 of Dick Grune's original CVS scripts were published to the comp.sources.unix newsgroup, volume 22 issue 13. You can find them at the following URL: ftp://gatekeeper.research.compaq.com/pub/usenet/comp.sources.unix/volume22/cvs3.0/ Don't expect much in the way of the kind of documentation you're seeking. There's a man page and comments in the code. The code comments were copied faithfully when Brian Berliner translated it to C, but have been changed substantially since then. Also note that the Berliner and Grune implementations had already diverged by this point. Grune's historian is an alpha-quality attempt to track actual configurations, which the Berliner implementation has never done well. --- Forwarded mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm looking for the original CVS shell scripts that were written to interact with RCS.

Re: CVS working directories on FAT
Braden McDaniel [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I was hoping to be able to share CVS working directories between boots to Linux and Windows by putting them on a FAT partition. However, I'm running into the problem that case is not preserved for file names not longer than 8 characters. For instance, a file README in the repository becomes readme in the working directory, and cvs then becomes confused. You could try VFAT (Win95 style long filenames). It's still a bit fishy but since you're talking about working directories, not the repository, at worst your own working copy will be broken. You could have trouble if Windows and Linux have a different idea of file line endings - you'd probably need to use the Cygwin CVS client or another that won't insert carriage returns when checking out text files on Windows. -- Ed Avis [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Re: CVS working directories on FAT
You could have trouble if Windows and Linux have a different idea of file line endings - you'd probably need to use the Cygwin CVS client or another that won't insert carriage returns when checking out text files on Windows. Most windows clients have an option for Linux line endings - but there is another problem, even if you get around the line ending stuff: the local administration of the sandbox (i.e. the contents of the CVS directories) is slightly different for Linux and Windows clients. For example: using WinCVS or TortoiseCvs on a linux sandbox (mounted via samba) does not work properly. Using the Cygwin client is probably your only option. Why not create two sandboxes, one on your Linux partition and one on Windows, and use the repository to keep them in sync - after all, CVS is quite good at keeping separate sandboxes with changes in sync...
