[gentoo-user] problem setting up cvs server

[Aaron Walker]

I am trying to setup my Gentoo box as a cvs server so that I have a 
central repository for my code since I have multiple machines I test it 
on (mainly FreeBSD).  I emerge'd cvs and xinetd, and setup the 
repository as the cvs docs say.  I created the cvs user and cvs group.

My /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver contains:

service cvspserver
{
        disable         = no
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = cvs
        group           = cvs
        log_type        = FILE /var/log/cvspserver
        protocol        = tcp
        env             = '$HOME=/home/cvsroot'
        log_on_failure  += USERID
        port            = 2401
        server          = /usr/bin/cvs
        server_args     = -f --allow-root=/home/cvsroot pserver
}
xinetd is started
when I try to checkout the code from my FreeBSD box (with CVSROOT set to 
":pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvsroot"), I get:

cvs [checkout aborted]: reading from server: Connection reset by peer

/var/log/cvspserver says:

03/12/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:34:47: START: cvspserver pid=22674 from=192.168.1.4
03/12/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:34:47: FAIL: cvspserver address from=192.168.1.4
Not very informative...

Anyone have any idea why it isn't working?

Thanks,
Aaron
