That’s because it depends. :)

If you use an ssh:// URL, you give the OS user password because the local 
Fossil logs into the remote system and schleps the data back through the SSH 
connection.   

If you use an http[s]:// URL, you give the user name and password in the remote 
Fossil’s Admin > Users configuration because the OS user has nothing to do with 
anything in that configuration.

What *should* also appear on that page somewhere is at least one @ sign.

Thank you. Whats not clear in the docs is which password. I had interpreted
as the site user not the fossil user password. Also nowhere is it mentioned
you need a running instance of fossil on the server.
All sorted now though and working.

Thanks to all for help

Actually, you don’t have to re-clone.  From within the anonymous clone’s 
checkout, you can just change the sync URL:

fossil sync http://d...@danraymond.org/fossil/mydan

That’s because you didn’t give your remote Fossil user name in the clone URL.  
Hence, you’re anonymous, hence you can’t write.  Say:

fossil clone http://d...@danraymond.org/fossil/mydan funny.fossil

It will then ask for d...@danraymond.org’s Fossil password and if you want it 
to save it.

This is all quite clear in the docs.

Pietro,

Thanks that nailed it. Was not clear from the documentation works to clone.
HOwever, whenever I try to autosync back the other way I get a "not
authorized to write" error?

The clone command needs a fossil server listening - possibly through CGI - and 
is not equivalent to copying the file itself: local config is not copied upon 
clone.

[fossil-users] Cloning issue

[Dan Raymond]

I can issue this: "wget http://danraymond.org/fossil/mydan.fossil; and get
the repository file "mydan.fossil"

if I issue: "fossil clone http://danraymond.org/fossil/mydan funny.fossil"

I get:
"server says: 404 Not Found
Clone done, sent: 268  received: 675  ip: 102.0.110.131
server returned an error - clone aborted

I can't seem to get a clone to work at all, always the 404 even though wget
can.

I have tried  variations with the remoter serve login/password as: "fossil
clone http://login:passw...@danraymond.org/fossil/mydan funny.fossil" to no
avail

On the host I can execute fossil server mydan.fossil and the web ui works
as expected and opens the remote repository file and I can make wiki etc.

Any clues would be appreciated as I would appreciate getting clone going

Dan
