Re: Smart CVS
The reason i am using locks is because the files are XML, and as far as i know when CVS trys to merge XML it can result in invalid XML. I do however remember on previous uses of CVS the option to check stuff out as read only. However I cannot find that option now, this option was on the WinCvs client I am sure. Do i require to do some sort of configuration on the Cvs Server to allow the locking of files? I have read the above manual, well actually the manual for 1.11.17, as this is what I am using, it just seems to describe the difference between reserved and normal edits. I have been able to check out the repository but then had to manually tell it to unedit all the files, so they appeared as locked. Then when i commit a change to a file it just leaves it as editable, were in previous use of cvs it would go back to being uneditable, i.e read only. Does anyone know if i need to do something else that I may have not done. Thanks all for the extended help S. ___ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
CVS Export
When i run the cvs export command either through WinCVS or on the command line using cvs export -r DNOW ecc it exports the ecc module with the CVSROOT folders and CVS folders. Can anyone give me a hint, or preferably the answer as to what I am doing wrong! Thanks in advance guys S. ___ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
Re: Possible Spam: Re: CVS and SSH V2
Guys Finally got it all working! woho! Only question I have left is can you make files read only in smartCVS so that users have to select the file for editing first, to stop other users being able to edit the same file at the same time?

Smart CVS
Guys, I posted on here recently with regards to using SSH and SmartCvs, I have (i think) made a little head way in this but when trying to get the modules to read from smartCVS checkout project option i am getting the following: An i/o error occured, details: Unknown Compression method I have no idea why I am getting this! I can get the cvs now to check out files on an older version of CVS 1.2 or something like that using putty and plink, but would rather be using smartCVS Thanks again guys p.s. would have posted this on the smartCVS form but my company firewall blocks it!

Re: Possible Spam: Re: CVS and SSH V2
Guys finally seem to have got the cvs command to work, by creating a symbolic link from the /usr/bin to the cvs within usr/local/bin, which is not loaded on ssh scripts However, when i go to checkout i now get the following error message: cvs -d :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/appl/cvs checkout -P ole (in directory C:\) cvs checkout: in directory ole: cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory cvs checkout: Updating ole cvs [checkout aborted]: could not chdir to ole/Application: No such file or directory As far as I can see there is a CVS directory and and entries within that all belonging to user gtx. Any ideas why this is? p.s should my root be set to the directory that contains the directory CVSROOT?

CVS and SSH V2
Guys, I am trying to setup CVS and SmartCVS to allow communication with each other. I did not set up the CVS server, our admin team has done that. So here is what i have been doing: I have installed SmartCVS and entered the following into for the connection string: :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:22\appl\cvs\ole using public/private key auth, with the private key file pointed to and the public copied into authorized_keys. When I test the connection using smart cvs it seems fine, then when i click next to enter a modules i get an "io error with details null". I am really hitting a brick wall with this stuff I have never had to setup CVS with SSH before, I have even tried previous clients of WinCVS and get similiar setup, again I seem to be able to login to the server, as its return command ran with 0, but when i try to checkout the module i get a "ksh: cvs not found error" This would imply its not loading the enviroment variables hences cvs is not on the path, which i think it does not do for ssh, ie does not load the .profile, but how do you get round this. If indeed this is (a) problem. I am unsure if i am required to do anything on the client machine either, i.e set any enviroment variables. As you can see any help would be appreciated, and if anyone has done this before i would very much like to talk to them!
