Hi CVSers HEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!

Operating System : AIX 4.3
CVS Mode : pserver
CVS Version : 1.10

We used to get the following irritating warning from cvs server on runnning
every cvs command.

e.g.
cvs update: warning: unrecognized response `setgroups: Not owner' from cvs
server


Now i've (tried) to move to CVS 1.10.8 and I cant run any cvs command!!

e.g.
cvs [update aborted]: unrecognized auth response from goanna: setgroups: Not
owner


The entry in /etc/inetd.conf is as follows:

cvspserver stream       tcp     nowait  cvsowner /path/to/cvs/bin/cvs cvs
--allow-root=/path/to/cvs/repository pserver

(The pserver runs as cvsowner not root).


Larry, i know you told me that could be a hideous AIX bug. Is there an easier
workaround than moving the IBM machinery to send out an AIX patch?

thanks in advance,
aditya
