SSH access in CVS 1.12.11

2005-06-01 Thread Tim Allen 
Hi

I've been using CVS 1.11.17 clients (and earlier versions) on Windows
machines with no problems. The CVS server runs on a Linux 2.4 box. Access is
over SSH, using the Cygwin OpenSSH, using digital certificates. I've just
tried the 1.12.11 and 1.12.10 clients, and get the following:

U:\cvs -t -d :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/local/cvs version
  - main loop with CVSROOT=/var/local/cvs
Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.12.11 (client)
Server:   - open_connection_to_server
(:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/local/
cvs)
 - Starting server: ssh -l tda fleet.dcallen.co.uk cvs server
cvs [version aborted]: reading from server: No such file or directory

Compare with 1.11.17, which is fine:

U:\TDAcvs -t -d :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/local/cvs version
- main loop with CVSROOT=:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/local/cvs
Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.17 (client)
Server:  - Starting server: ssh -l tda fleet.dcallen.co.uk cvs server
Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.18 (client/server)
 - Lock_Cleanup()
- Lock_Cleanup()

Can anyone shed any light on what has changed between V1.11 and 1.12?

CVS_RSH=ssh


Thanks

Tim

 Yes, updating to a new version of cvs may fix it. I will try this
 method. But I want to know why?

Updating *will* fix it -- only ancient versions of CVS have this
problem.

yes, some analysis of this problem is here.
https://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.20/cvs_21.html#SEC189


After I updated to version 1.11.19, the error report still exist.
And I fixed it by special -f in xinet startup file for cvs.


The following is some details:
The article has introduced two way to resolve it:

/
then you probably haven't specified `-f' in `inetd.conf'. (In releases
prior to CVS 1.11.1, this problem can be caused by your system setting
the $HOME environment variable for programs being run by inetd. In this
case, you can either have inetd run a shell script that unsets $HOME
and then runs CVS, or you can use env to run CVS with a pristine
environment.)


1,
unset home
in my xinet file, I found home has already been unset; so this way
cannot worked.(I have verify it.)

And after I upgrate, this problem still exist.
//
start(){
echo -n $Starting $prog: 
# Need to get rid of localization for external services -
# it doesn't make much sense to have i18n on the server side here

LANG=en_US
LC_TIME=en_US
LC_ALL=en_US
LC_MESSAGES=en_US
LC_NUMERIC=en_US
LC_MONETARY=en_US
LC_COLLATE=en_US
export LANG LC_TIME LC_ALL LC_MESSAGES LC_NUMERIC LC_MONETARY
LC_COLLATE
unset HOME MAIL USER
USERNAME--important
daemon $prog -stayalive -reuse -pidfile /var/run/xinetd.pid
$EXTRAOPTIONS
RETVAL=$?
echo
touch /var/lock/subsys/xinetd
#qianxin
#   unset HOME
#qianxin
return $RETVAL
}
/

2,  -f   To make cvs do not read the cvs startup file (~/.cvsrc).
It works.

Moving PVCS to CVS

2005-06-01 Thread Aaron Jackson 
I've been trying to move a PVCS setup to CVS, but have not had any 
success. I'm trying to use the pvcs2cvs.pl script from cvshome, but it 
doesn't seem to do anything. I first tried it on a Windows 2000 box, and 
am now trying it on a linux box. On the linux machine, I cannot find a 
copy of vcs or vlog. Does anyone know of where I could find some materials 
to read/have any advice on completing this task? I'm new to PVCS and 
relatively new to CVS so any help would be welcomed.
