I'm trying to bring my repository up on a fresh Redhat 6.2 box, having some
problems I don't remember having before.
Specific message when trying to access repository locally (with "cvs
checkout java" after login):
cvs server: cannot open /root/.cvsignore: Permission denied
cvs [server aborted]: can't chdir(/root): Permission denied
What did I miss?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Setup:
Created user "cvsowner" w/ home dir: /home/cvs
Createg group "cvs".
Created dir. for repository at /home/cvs/cvsroot
>From /home/cvs:
chgrp -R cvs .
chmod ug+rwx . cvsroot
I copied in my repository archive and from /home/cvs/cvsroot:
chown -R cvsowner cvsroot
/etc/services contains cvspserver entry
/etc/inetd/conf contains
cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/cvs cvs
--allow-root=/home/cvs/cvsroot pserver
/home/cvs/cvsroot contains passwd file, appears to work (I can login)
