Question about auto login

2001-05-06 Thread Liwei Chour



Dear Sir:
I use CVS for several month, It is good for me. But I have one question 
about auto-login.

Beacuse Ineed to buildprogram everyday in different machines, I 
should login CVS server, checkout code, 
build code and logout. I want these process automatically, so I write a 
shell command file to do this job. But 
I need login CVS first. How do I write auto-login shell command ?

Sincerely
Liwie Chour in OFFICE

You don't need to. When you first login (successfully) to any cvs
server, the password information is stored in an encrypted form in the
.cvspass file in your home directory. After this initial login, you
never need to use the cvs login command for that same server ever
again. (Yes, .cvspass saves passwords from multiple servers).

(Note: if you want to forget the password for a particular server,
you can run the cvs logout command, which will erase that password
from .cvspass. You will then need to run cvs login again for that
server before you can use it again.)
