4. cvs login works but cvs checkout or other commands fail with
"setgid failed: Operation not permitted"
...
There is also one thing that may cause this. In NFS networked system
all UID and GID values must be kept same, so the admin sometimes
need to hand adjust the cvsd(uid,gid) values by hand in
/etc/passwd
/etc/group
Now, the catch is that the admin amy forgot to update
$CVSDROOT/etc/passwd
file as well. All 3 must be kept in sych.
Especially if cvsd if removed and reinstalled, the uid/gid values
change, because system allocates first free value during the
new installation.
If possible explain this in the FAQ. It saves lot of headache.
