Cygwin CVS Login Error - setuid failed: Permission denied
hi, everyone, I am a newbie to the CVS. I encountered an error whiling installing and configuring the CVS under Cygwin. My OS is windows 2003 Server and Logon with my Domain Account: hfrank. I downloaded and installed ALL components being accessible from Cygwin Mirror site. So, I think my Cygwin is a full-functional Cygwin. Then, I do the commands like: (1) mkpasswd -d /etc/passwd, mkgroup -d /etc/group (2) /usr/bin/iu-config -y (3) add the cvspserver tcp/2401 into the WINNT/system32/driver/etc/service add cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /bin/cvs cvs --allow-root=/var/cvs pserver (4) inetd --install-as-service and start the service (5) export CVSROOT=/var/cvs (6) cvs init, and the /var/cvs/CVSROOT/* are created automatically without errors (7) I create the /var/cvs/CVSROOT/passwd file like : Administrators::Administrators hfrank::hfrank cvsuser:7T6EfeWS:hfrank (8) Everything looks well . But , when I try to connect the cvs server with WinCVS, like: pserver:cvsuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/cvs login and pserver:hfrank:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/cvs login, the error message setuid failed: Permision denied was returned from the server. pc-230 is the computer name of the Server. But i can login the server from another cygwin environment correctly. I will appreciate any hints and help on this issue. Thanks in advance.

CVS login error
I'm trying to find some help about the login command to CVS. Several new things have happened here simultaneously and we are having trouble sorting out why I get an error with login: We got a new Windows 2003 server at the same time I got a new G5, OS X 10.3.5 and upgraded Metrowerk's Code Warrior to its latest version ( 9 ). Our previous server ( Windows 2000 ) had Visual Source Safe(VSS) 6.0.c, for our source control. VSS was just copied from the old server to the new server, and we have been able to still access VSS from our Windows platforms and from MAC OS 9.2 machine which has an old version of Code Warrior that still had interface for login in the setup panel. The new Metrowerks documentation says to login to CVS with -d login command and then Mac projects can access VSS from with the IDE.x-tad-bigger I used the pserver protocol since VSS is on the server. After typing in the cvs -d command, I am prompted for CVS password: When I type in my password I get the following a cvs [login aborted]: connect to maestrolearning.com:2401 failed: Operation timed out. I have also tried using MacCvsX to login and get the same error message. We had another company set up the new server and they are unfamiliar with Macs. Although we are not using CVS for source control, should something have be installed on our new server to enable the 'pserver' protocol for CVS login? Any recommendation for resources to check? I am not having any trouble connecting from the OS X machine to the server directly, or accessing files/folders there. It's just the cvs login error that has me baffled.

RE: CVS login error
CVS does not talk to VSS. I don't know what you were doing before, but I'm pretty confident that you were not using CVS to talk to a VSS server. More likely you had CodeWarrior configured to use VSS. --Rick GenterPrincipal EngineerSilverlink Communicationsmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED](781) 272-3080 x242This e-mail, including attachments, may include confidential and/or proprietary information, and may only be used by the person or entity to which it is addressed.

This can
happen in the case you have not created the cvspserver file on your server.
If you are using Red Hat systems after distribution 7.2, then you are
required to put this file in the /etc/xinetd.d directory. The format of this
file is..

}
The repository root is denoted by the

server_args = -f
--allow-root=/cvs/versions pserver
in the
above mentioned file.

Re: cvs login
[EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: cvs [login aborted]: unrecognized auth response from machine: cvs pserver: cannot open dir/CVS/CVSROOT/config: Permission denied You're running the server from [x]inetd as root, right? If so, that error means that *root* doesn't have permission to access that directory, not you. That in turn implies that your repository is on an NFS-mounted filesystem which is a major mistake: it's just asking for trouble, and you're already getting it. By default, NFS maps root to an ordinary user (typically nobody in the group nogroup) who doesn't have permission to access your repository. It probably wouldn't hurt to give everyone read permission on the CVSROOT directory and its contents, but you're much better off moving your repository to a local disk. -Larry Jones It's no fun to play games with a poor sport. -- Calvin ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

I am moving a directory over from one CVS location to another. The permissions on the new directory are a bit different since it is set to 770 where I am in the group.

When I do cvs login username it gives me cvs login: authorization failed: server servername rejected access to directory for user username but I should have full permissions to this directory.

When this happens, the server should log a message under the DAEMON facility that says either login refused for repository (which indicates that the specified repository isn't valid) or login failure (for repository) (which indicates that either the username or passwordisn't valid). In the later case, if your system has an AUTHPRIV facility, it will also log a message there containing the username and password. Since it looks like the specified repository exactly matches the --allow-root= option in inetd.conf, I'd say either the username or password isn't right: are you using a $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/passwd file or system authorization? -Larry Jones I'm crying because out there he's gone, but he's not gone inside me. -- Calvin ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

I defined cvsusergroup user's home directory as cvsrepository. Also made that user as owner of that group. Gave --rwe-- permissions to the repository. Try su'ing to cvsusergroup and running CVS in local mode to be sure that works; do something innocuous like checking out CVSROOT. That way you'll know the permisions aren't screwing things up. I also have a CVS admin GUI page from where I can add cvs users. I added few cvs users and defined them to access the files as cvsusergroup ... This added the following lines to $CVSROOT/cvsroort/passwd file Ibrahim:password:cvsusergroup cvsusergroup:password:cvsusergroup. Those are encrypted passwords, not plain text passwords, right? I am really going crazy with this error. What is the cvspserver/tcp: bind: Address already in use error? Note that that's a inetd message and has nothing to do with your login problem. Most likely it means that you restated inetd very shortly after killing it so that the system still had the existing sockets around to handle any late packets from remote systems. Since inetd seems to be working fine, it must have dealt with the errors appropriately. How do we define cvspserver to authenticate the users againt the users in the passwd file or against the system users? That's SystemAuth in the $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/config file -- it defaults to yes, which means CVS uses both the system passwd file and its own passwd file. -Larry Jones I think if Santa is going to judge my behavior over the last year, I ought to be entitled to legal representation. -- Calvin ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

No, it's some kind of internal error in inetd -- it's not the cause of your problem. Again, you need to look for messages from CVS itself, not messages from inetd. And check to see if your system has an AUTH_PRIV facility -- if so, the log messages for it usually go to a special log file that only root can read since they contain security-related information.

Yes. Here's one I use in a SOAP-based distributed build system.
I've expressed the routine and the stuff it calls as shell 'here' documents
just because I'm feeling geeky today. My code is OO and passes in a target
object whose fields contain the info needed to access the repository.
You can easily change this to pass in the stuff as string scalars instead.
To use:
require cvsLogin.pl;
require services.pl;
_cvsLogin( $target );
cat cvsLogin.pl EOF;
sub _cvsLogin {
#
# this routine expects to receive a SOAPMaker::Target object.
# info needed to build the cvs command is retrieved from the target object.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
This library provides a wrapper for executing native commands and capturing
their output.
=over 4
=item ($returnCode,$signal)=logTick(command, \@output, \@input);
This routine expects a string containing a command to be executed, and a
reference to an ARRAY to which the command's stdout and stderr will be
appended. Optionally, any necessary input can be provided by passing a
additional ARRAY reference containing the input.
If an input array is provided, the $command string is pushed onto the @output
array to simulate a command prompt. The entire content of the input array is
printed to the command's STDIN before any output is retrieved. (This routine
isn't intended to be a true interactive commincator to a long-running
child-process.)

FW: CVS login problem
I am having problems logging into our CVS server. When I start CVS, it
seems OK; I can log in as myself. However, when I try to do something
like update a folder, commit and suchlike, the following error is
reported:
"cvs update: authorization failed: server cvs rejected access to /cvs/dev
for user sam
cvs update: used empty password; try "cvs login" with a real password"
If I then try to login again, it attempts to log me in as one of my
colleagues ('sam').
I cannot figure out why it thinks I am someone else. My .cvspass file is
present and correct and doesn't even include my colleague's user details.
I suspect the problem is server side, as upgrading from 1.0.6 to 1.1b17
has had no effect.
Thanks in advance,

Re: cvs login failure
(Oops. Thought I had sent this off days ago... Sorry.)
Some interesting news, below. Good but puzzling.
On 18 Oct, Derek R. Price wrote:

I did a strings on the Windows cvs.exe and on /usr/bin/cvs on Linux,

$CVS_CLIENT_LOG.in and $CVS_CLIENT_LOG.out and writes in there.
No, that's about it. I'm not sure what shell you are using, but in Bourne, Bash,
and
Korn, you need to export environment variables for a child process to see them:
Sure. That's why I said I "exported" CVS_CLIENT_LOG.
Whoops. Just checked myself and CVS doesn't start writing to the client log until
after authentication, probably for the obvious reasons, but it does work under both
Linux Windows in 1.11.
So wouldn't get any debug for the part that's going wrong, anyway.
Anyway, I'd say your options are compiling a debug version under Windows and
attempting to trace the failed attempt or figure out what the difference between
your
Windows Linux CVSROOT specs are, since the Linux version worked.
I'll admit that it seems difficult to see how to setup the cvs server
to be run from gdb. Hmm, maybe I could attach to it once it was
running...
Is LOGNAME set
differently on the two machines?
No.
Try a CVSROOT with no variables in it. CVS
shouldn't be filling anything into CVSROOT on either platform, so if the problem
lies
there you should be able to fix it on the command line.
I think that's a small red herring. I tried without a CVSROOT, using
the -d option, with the same result.
Also, try again to make sure that handy's IP address is the same regardless of which
machine you look it up on.
Handy is defunct; "mantovani" is the stand-in. There is an amd entry
so that /home/handy is the same as /home/mantovani. But our network is
solid and clean, and I'd be flabbergasted if mantovani's IP address
changed while the machine was running (the IP addresses are assigned
dynamically from a server).
And now for the good but puzzling news. It's now working.
Now, keep in mind that this all used to work when Handy was alive; and
failed when Mantovani replaced it. Both were running the same version
of Linux with the same versions of the same utilities installed.
Also involved is an old version of ssh compiled for Windows.
The problem only occurs if we don't explicitly specify the login id when
we make the ssh connection from the Windows box to the Linux CVS
server. The ssh login succeeds, but when we later try to cvs login,
the cvs server on the Linux box rejects the login with the message
"authentication failure".
The mechanism works like this - let me use Win to stand for the Windows
client and Lin for the Linux server:
On Win we do: ssh -L 2401:localhost:2401 Lin
I gather this makes a loopback connection on port 2401 on localhost
(Win), talking to a 2nd loopback ssh connection on port 2401 on Lin,
and because of our /etc/{services,inetd.conf} and pserver CVSROOT, cvs
talks via ssh.
With the ssh -l $LOGNAME it all works. Without the -l $LOGNAME we get
the "authentication failure" error when the windows user tries to cvs
login - *even though the ssh login works*.
Each user only has a single login id.
Puzzles are:
1) If the -l $LOGNAME is needed, why did it work at all previously?
2) How can the ssh login succeed but the cvs login fail? Where does the
cvs server get the login id from? The client? If so, how does the
ssh login id affect it?
I twigged to this after trying a new ssh compiled under U/Win 2.25,
which just happens to default to using "DOMAIN/$LOGNAME" as the login
id. This forced me to specify -l $LOGNAME to make even the ssh login
succeed. And after that, the cvs login worked.
So, we're happy that it's now working, but don't really understand what
went wrong, or why it now works.

So all cvs communications are sent via ssh. We use this because we're working on a clean room project; it just happens to be the same system we use if working off site. Why don't you use :ext:luke@linuxhost:/home/mantovani/cvs-archive And set CVS_RSH to ssh. See above. Plus, it used to work until we changed the CVS server from one Linux machine to another. And this way still works when talking to another server serving another CVS archive. A very significant fact: when logged into the cvs server, if we use CVSROOT=":pserver:$LOGNAME@localhost:/home/mantovani/cvs-archive" cvs login fails there! Doing a trace of it, all we see is the server sending the message "I HATE YOU". So the password validation appears to be failing. In summary: I think we're using ssh for good reasons; it used to work; changing from one Linux machine to another (and re-doing the config) stopped it working; we can still use the technique to talk to another server serving another CVS archive. Any hints about how we diagnose this? Does cvs provide any verbose logging or debug mode? AFAIK, cvs login takes no options. My next step otherwise will be to modify the cvs source to generate some information to trace what's going on. luke ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

cvs login failure
We had a Linux machine hosting a secure CVS archive, for some Windows and Linux development. Then the Linux PC died. Fortunately, the CVS archive was on its own drive, so we just put it into a 2nd Linux machine, and re-did all the ssh and inetd configuration. The Windows machines access the CVS archive via the pserver method, using ssh. The Linux machines just set CVSROOT to use the archive directory (it's auto-mounted). But the CVS archive isn't working for the Windows machines anymore; any attempt to do a cvs login gets the error below: CVSROOT set to :pserver:luke@localhost:/home/mantovani/cvs-archive Started ssh, so now you need to cvs login: (Logging in to luke@localhost) CVS password: cvs [login aborted]: authorization failed: server localhost rejected access Is there any way to find out why the cvs client (or is it the server?) rejected the login? Is there any kind of logging information that can be examined? One fact that is probably a red herring, is that the window in which the ssh connection to the CVS server is made, displays errors like: $ DUPRE.: Connection to port 2401 forwarding to localhost:2401 requested. Address 127.0.0.1 maps to dupre, but this does not map back to the address - POSSIBLE BREAKIN ATTEMPT! But we used to get errors like this with the now-dead Linux PC, and everything worked fine. We're using cvs version 1.10.6 under Red Hat Linux 6.1, and the cvs client version is 1.10. The only change was the replacement of one Linux PC with another. Any suggestions? luke ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
About the cvs login failures
I should have added that the Windows machine can access other CVS archives using the same pserver method - the cvs login command to the archive on another machine (a Solaris machine), works fine. It's just the stand-in Linux machine that the Windows clients can't cvs login to. luke ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

When I do cvs init on a temp cvsroot, 'who am i' is now replaced by 'id'. I has replaced 'who am i' with id and it is now fixed.

Re: [Re: support cvs login for rsh mode?]
Many thanks for the explanation. I will look into SSH. Are there any more detailed reference for configuring/using SSH with CVS? On another topic, I get following message: Must be attached to terminal for 'am I' option How can I get rid of this? Thanks again. regards, ls [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Greg A.

Due to security reason, .rhosts is not allowed. Ah, no, it wouldn't actually. Doing so would again make CVS the weak link in whatever security they provide. Any external remote execution facility will supply its own method of eliminating user interaction during authentication, if that should be safe to do given the style of authentication. Certainly rsh and all versions of ssh provide such mechanisms currently so there's definitely no need to make CVS the weak link in them. If ~/.rhosts is not allowed in your environment and yet you're still using RSH then you've got some seriously brain-damaged security people! The only major loop-hole in the ~/.rhosts facility is that it allows ordinary users to grant authorisation to other users. However if your site is auditing for the presence of ~/.rhosts files then they can just as easily audit their contents and thus prevent such a loop-hole with no additional added risk (and in fact in some scenarios the overall risks go *WAY* down when you allow ~/.rhosts because people stop typing their passwords in the clear -- in fact forcing ~/.rhosts can be enormously more secure than plain old telnet (it all depends on your exact circumstances of course, including what threats you face). Indeed if your site is not allowing ~/.rhosts then they certainly won't allow a ~/.cvspass for RSH! (at least not so long as they have two functioning neurons to rub together! ;-) You should probably switch to SSH in any case though. -- Greg A.

Don't make them run programs that may output strings upon a non-session login.

support cvs login for rsh mode?
It would be nice to support cvs login for :ext: same as :pserver: , that is, a new line will generate in HOME/.cvspass for accessing via ext and that line will be removed at cvs logout. Due to security reason, .rhosts is not allowed. Any information would be appreciated. regards, LS Get your own FREE, personal Netscape WebMail account today at http://webmail.netscape.com.
CVS Login Eror
Title: CVS Login Eror OK, so i finally got my CVS server set up using pserver and i can import, and checkout using WinCVS and MacCVS clients. But when i make a mod and then try to do a commit on a file in either WinCVS or MacCVS, i get the following error: cvs commit -m Test xmain.cpp Milestones (in directory Macintosh HD:CVSROOT:Test1:) cvs commit: authorization failed: server 192.168.55.21 rejected access I can manually log in, i can execute import and checkout commands successfully - all with code 0 as the result, so i know i am connecting to the server ok, but it almost as if when i go to do a checkin that the server rejects my password or login info. Does anyone know what is going on? Thanks, -m -
Problems with cvs login
Sorry if this is a bit long. I am having problems just logging into cvs: (cvsusr) /usr/local/cvs/repos-1/CVSROOT: cvs -d :pserver:cvsusr@localhost:/usr/local/cvs/repos-1 login (Logging in to cvsusr@localhost) CVS password: cvs [login aborted]: received broken pipe signal The entire tree /usr/local/cvs is rw by group cvsgrp, of which cvsusr is a member. In /usr/local/cvs/repos-1/CVSROOT/passwd, I created an entry for cvsusr, and put in a copy of the encrypted password created elsewhere (works for unix login), the uid for cvsusr is 500, and the home directory is /usr/local/cvs. I have cvs version 1.10.6, RedHat 6.1, kernel 2.2.14. Has anyone had this type of problem? Thanks in advance. Bob

cvs login giving unrecognized auth response
Hello all cvs-ers, Not clear why this is happening to me and would love feedback if you've encountered this: # ./cvs login (Logging in to acox@omi-internal) CVS password: cvs [login aborted]: unrecognized auth response from omi-internal: cvs: invalid option -- o This is my CVSROOT setting: # printenv | grep CVSROOT CVSROOT=:pserver:acox@omi-internal:/data/web It's the latest package from sunfreeware.com (working on Solaris 2.6) Anyone with an idea? Thanks much. -Adrian

CVS login through scripts?
Is the cvs login command always interactive? Can I somehow script it?
scripting CVS login
Can you script cvs login? I have read through the documentation and it only seems to be interactive.
Re: Automating CVS login for scripts
Art Solano writes: Can I peform a CVS login unattended without user interaction so I may include CVS commands within my scripts? No, but you only have to login once, not every time (CVS saves the login information in ~/.cvspass), so you just need to login once as the user the script will be running as, then you can run the script as much as you want without having to worry about loging in. -Larry Jones Years from now when I'm successful and happy, ...and he's in prison...

There used to be a CVS_PASSWORD environment variable, but it was deprecated due to security concerns (see login.c). I can't think of any way to make it non-interactive now, except to just put the correct entry in ~/.cvspass and hope. -Karl
