RE: CVS Server on RH 8.0

2003-03-20 Thread Brian Kowald
CVS will be installed if you selected it during the installation. You can go
back to the Package manager and add it later if you didn't. Its under the
details.  Also, to update my cvs server to the latests, I just downloaded
the RH8 binary, did RPM -U filename and was done.

The manual at cvshome has how to configure Red Hats xinetd configuration
stuff.

Subject: CVS Server on RH 8.0


I have installed RH 8.0 professional (in the server mode) on a PC,
which I intend to use as CVS server/repository.  So I want to install
CVS server on it.

I am confused as to how to proceed.

I downloaded automake-1.5-cvshome.1.noarch.rpm from cvshome.org
I attempt to install the package, but it said the a newer package
(something like automake-1.6.1) was already installed. It may be the
case the CVS is already installed as part of RH8.0...or not.
Either way, I don't know how to proceed

I didn't see any installation instructions at the cvshome.org page.

Thanks for any help,
John

RE: Database file checkin

2003-03-10 Thread Brian Kowald
Sure, just store the backup file as binary.  Another option is to store the
scripts for creating the tables and stored procedures since they are text
files, which is what cvs was born to work with.  That is how I have seen
DBA's do it.  You could then use the merging capability of cvs. You might
also have upgrade scripts to store when going from one version of your app
to another to store.

Subject: Database file checkin


Dear CVS Users,

Has anybody checked in a database backup into CVS? I know this may sound
odd, but I was thinking of taking a snapshot of my SQL Server database in a
empty data state and then checking it into CVS.

Basically, I just want to track my stored procedures and table schemas
because I replicate this database for distinct customers. The database is
tightly coupled to a Web application which I manage under CVS also and I'll
like to keep both the database and web application components in sync.

Will there be any issues with checking that backup out of CVS and restoring
a new database from it? I will test this on my own, but I was wondering if
anyone else has taken this path before.

Thanks.
Daniel.

Can't do setuid

2003-02-04 Thread Brian Kowald
I'm trying to get the permissions working for my repository.

For my whole repository, I set the file and directory owner to cvs and the
group to cvsusers. I did this recursively.

I set set group id bit for the entire repository with'chmod -R g+s'.
This is so that new files will have the correct group and owner.

When I execute a cvs update, I get the error message Can't do setuid'  When
I go and look at the repository, the owner has changed to the user doing the
cvs command.

How should this be set up?

Brian

RE: installing cvs server on redhat linux 8.0

2003-01-30 Thread Brian Kowald

You don't have to edit xinetd.conf but did you create the file
/etc/xinetd.d/cvsserver?

Here is mine:

service cvspserver
{
port= 2401
socket_type = stream
protocol= tcp
wait= no
user= root
passenv = PATH
server  = /usr/bin/cvs
env = HOME=/cvsrepo
server_args = -f --allow-root=/cvsrepo/TEST pserver
}


This says I have one repository in /cvsrepo/TEST and that I want to use the
pserver protocol

Then restart xinetd.  After that you should see it listening on port 2401


Look at the online manual, most of this stuff in in there.


Next to have to create the reppository at a prompt on the server:

Looks like you did the init. After that I would say stop using local mode
and connect to the repository from a client.

It looks like you just have permissions wrong for your repository. When you
are using local mode (-d /home/cvsroot), the system is going to look at the
permissions of the current logged in user. Set the owner and the group of
the files in the repository to cvs  and put the user you want to be the
administator (you) into the cvs group.

Subject: installing cvs server on redhat linux 8.0


hi...

New to cvs and redhat 8.0. trying to install a cvs server on redhat 8.0
server. I have the following rpms installed:
sendmail-8.12.5-7
sendmail-cf-8.12.5-7
cvs-1.11.2-5

I'd like to be able to configure the server for both password and anonymous
access if possible (but I'll take what I can get!)

I used the following procedure as a guide to install/configure the server:

edited /etc/services to include the line:

==services:cvspserver 2401/tcp # CVS protocol server

edited etc/inetd.conf to include the following lines :

==# Allow CVS to be accessed as server in a client/server relationship
==cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/cvs
cvs -f -l --allow-root=/raid/cvsroot

(I DO NOT HAVE THIS. IT SEEMS THAT I DO HAVE xinetd.conf. I DIDN'T MAKE
THIS CHANGE)

created a new user as cvs
created a new group as cvs

created a repository directory as /root/cvsroot

changed the folder permissions for cvs

ran the following command:
cvs -d /root/cvsroot init [return]

ran the following command:
cvs -d /root/cvsroot checkout CVSROOT [return]


modified the CVSROOT/config file:

# Set this to no if pserver shouldn't check system users/passwords
SystemAuth=no

# Set `PreservePermissions' to `yes' to save file status information
# in the repository.
PreservePermissions=no

# Set `TopLevelAdmin' to `yes' to create a CVS directory at the top
# level of the new working directory when using the `cvs checkout'
# command.
TopLevelAdmin=yes


created /root/CVSROOT/passwd by copying/modifying the /etc/passwd file

== root:x:cvs
== test:x:cvs
== steview:x:cvs


Run the commands

cvs -d /raid/cvsroot add /root/CVSROOT/passwd [return]
cvs -d /raid/cvsroot commit /root/CVSROOT [return]

(the 2nd command returned the following.)
[test@lserver2 test]$ cvs -d /home/cvsroot commit /root/CVSROOT
cvs [commit aborted]: /home/cvsroot/CVSROOT: Permission denied


At this point I realize that I'm lost...

Can anyone point me to documentation that would guide me through the process
of setting up a CVS server on a Redhat 8.0 machine

I've tried to review the cvshome.org docs, but I haven't come across the
right section for actually installing the CVS server I've performed
searches through google, but i've seen different pieces of information

I can't afford to screw this up!!!

Any help/assistance would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Hello,

I am new to CVS and I try to install WinCVS on a PC. The server is an
OSX machine and it is working perfectly with MacCVS Pro client. But, on
the PC, it seem that the ssh connection is impossible with the server.
For example, when I try to do a simple check-out command, I obtain
this message from the console:


--
CVSROOT: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsrep (ssh authentication)
cvs checkout -P /cvsrep/dynastrip (in directory C:\Documents and

cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `'ssh' is not recognized
as an internal or external command,

cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `operable program or batch
file.
' from cvs server
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages
if any)

* CVS exited normally with code 1 *

I am running WinCVS 1.3.10.1 Beta 10 with Python 2.2.2 and the server
run MacOS 10.2.2.

Can you help me?

Thanks!

Adding maillog.pl script to checkoutlist causes it to loose permissions

2002-11-07 Thread Brian Kowald
I have added a perl script to checkoutlist in CVSROOT. When its extracted,
it does not have the execute permission. Is there a way to get ot to extract
with the execute permission, or would I have to have a script triggered off
of somewhere to modify the permissions after its extracted?

Thanks,
