cvs 1.11.1.p1 build errors

2002-03-14 Thread Dustin Cavanaugh
I'm attempting to build cvs server from distribution source. The machine is Solaris 7. After configuring the software with configure --without-gssapi, I then did a make and got the following fatal errors when the make attempted to create cvs: gcc -g -O2 -o cvs add.o admin.o annotate.o ...

I thought of this right after my first posting and tried ./configure --without-gssapi --without-krb4 and got the same errors. At 11:45 AM 3/14/2002 , Eric Siegerman wrote: On Thu, Mar 14, 2002 at 10:54:59AM -0800, Dustin Cavanaugh wrote: I'm attempting to build cvs server from

That did the trick, so here's the solution one more time for knuckleheads like me who can't seem to get it right! ;) 1) If a previous 'make' was unsuccessful, do a 'make clean' and 'make distclean' BEFORE attempting to configure again. 2) './configure --without-gssapi --without-krb4' 3) make 4)

How 2 Secure the repository?

2 things: 1) Stylized text. Yes I know better ... eudora puts a gray bar down the side of repeated messages instead of the usual . Just to be interesting, there's no obvious way of turning it off, so I gotta remember to manually remove it myself. :( 2) The best repository advice I've gotten

Re: secure CVS connection

2002-03-01 Thread Dustin Cavanaugh
I chose to use ssh because: 1) kerberos was not set up on my servers, and 2) its a pain to install and configure, and 3) I have to have secure connections. The server is Solaris and the clients are Windows. Thus far, there have been NO connection problems. Clients all have WinCvs(1.3b6),

Post_commit processing

2002-02-26 Thread Dustin Cavanaugh
I have a community sandbox that I use for cvsweb that has to be updated after ever commit. commitinfo handles pre-commit processing ... is there a similar file or technique for post-commit processing? ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: CVS import and file permissions

2001-12-19 Thread Dustin Cavanaugh
So, is it necessary to chgrp to cvs every new project that I add to the repository? It's not necessary if you set your repository up correctly. My repository has the following permissions: $ ls -ld /var/cvs drwxrwsr-x 16 root cvs 4096 Dec 19 15:34 /var/cvs

My repository is on unix (Sun); the owner is cvs and the group is cvs. Whenever a user changes one of the Administrative database files, cvs complains of Permission denied. Users (developers) are members of the cvs group (though its not their primary group). I notice that when the database is
