OK, here is what I have tried and the results (the results are the same
doing it from the local machine or a Windows box on the network)...

1)CVS works (--help etc.) without crashing.

2)If I telnet to servername 4201 I get...

"Unable to connect to remote host:Connection Refused"

3)If I telnet to servername cvspserver, it connects then I get...

"Connection Closed by foreign Host"

4)If I change my inetd.conf entry to:

'cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /home/phil/cvs-1.10.8/cvs  cvs'

...when I try to log in I get the cvs 'usage details', so I guess my path is
correct

5)When I add '--allow-root=/cvsmaster/ pserver' to the inetd.conf entry
above, when I try to login cvs prompts for a password and then I get either:

'cvs [login aborted]: received broken pipe signal' or
'cvs [login aborted]: recv() from myserver: Connection reset by peer'

It seams random when I get either error message.

Not sure if that gives any clues?

Cheers

Phil
