Right, but what about the $CVSROOT on the client - what does it contain?
That's the one that's likely not set properly.

My crystal ball tells me that you're using pserver and don't have a
--allow-root=/usr/local/cvsroot global option on the pserver line in
your [x]inetd config file (or you have it in the wrong place).

Connection refused - no such repository

2004-03-25 Thread Paul New 
Hello,

I am having dificulty connecting from Eclipse CVS client to CVS server on 
linux machine. When adding new repository in Eclipse I get an error message: 
I/O exception occured: Connection refused: /usr/local/cvsroot: no such 
repository. I can check out a project from /usr/local/cvsroot when working 
directly on the server but I cannot connect from the client.
Details:
$CVSROOT=/usr/local/cvsroot   specified in root's .bash_profile
/usr/local/cvsroot/CVSROOT/passwd   which has 1 line: anonymous:
cvsroot directory and all under is in cvs group

Thank you for your help.

Paul

Re: Connection refused to CVS repository (and ACLs).

2002-01-11 Thread Axelle 

Thanks to both of you for your helpful answers.
Actually, I found out the problem :
1. I had been using a pserver before, and it seems the user had kept a
previous file (.cvsrc, or maybe a bad $CVSROOT): this is why he was
attempted to connect to my machine.
2. The ACLs were accidentally set wrong on a few files. Actually, that
was a mask problem, and consequently, the user did not have the 'w'
right on some files he wanted to checkout.

By the way, if you're looking for a way to position ACLs recursively,
here's a nice command I found in the news :

find dir -exec setfacl setfacl-opts {} \;

Thanks,
Axelle.

 I have set up a locally mounted CVS repository, to share sources between 2
 of us on a same project.
 I can checkout files without any problem, but the other user can't and gets
 a
 cvs [checkout aborted]: connect to machine:2401 failed: Connection refused

The other user has his CVSROOT set to use :pserver: access rather than
local access.

 (I'm using a locally mounted repository. Not a pserver or another kind of
 remote CVS server).
 The user is specified in a 'writers' file in $CVSROOT/CVSROOT

The 'writers' file has no effect except when using :pserver: access. 
For local access, just set the repository permissions correctly.
