I need to set up CVS for accepting user-id and password on NT
in the cvs.html its been written as follows:
On the server side, the file `/etc/inetd.conf' needs to be edited so inetd knows to run the command cvs pserver when it receives a connection on the right port. By default, the port number is 2401; it would be different if your client were compiled with CVS_AUTH_PORT defined to something else, though.
If your inetd allows raw port numbers in `/etc/inetd.conf', then the following (all on a single line in `inetd.conf') should be sufficient:
2401 stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/bin/cvs
cvs --allow-root=/usr/cvsroot pserver
You could also use the `-T' option to specify a temporary directory.
The `--allow-root' option specifies the allowable CVSROOT directory. Clients which attempt to use a different CVSROOT directory will not be allowed to connect. If there is more than one CVSROOT directory which you want to allow, repeat the option.
If your inetd wants a symbolic service name instead of a raw port number, then put this in `/etc/services':
cvspserver 2401/tcp
and put cvspserver instead of 2401 in `inetd.conf'.
Once the above is taken care of, restart your inetd, or do whatever is necessary to force it to reread its initialization files.
But what's the equivalent of it for NT.
Thanx in advance
