hi

i am using redhatlinux 7.0 with cvs version cvs-1.10.8-8
i have writtern down the procedure which i have done now


I STARTED AS FOLLOWS.
logged  in as root

* pwd

/projects

#mkdir project1

#cvs -d /projects/project1 init
#chown -R sudhi project1
#chown -R mp3 project1  where mp3 contains users sudhi basavaraj sunil


#cp /etc/shadow /projects/project1/CVSROOT/
then renamed the shadow file to passwd with only two fields in the entry

then included in the /root/cvs_start file the line as
--allow-root=/projects/project1

then restarted the daemon /etc/rc   .d/init.d/xinetd restart which takes
care of starting the daemon for
cvspserver.

2nd stage;

logged in as sudhi
changed the CVSROOT in .bash_profile to
CVSROOT=:pserver:sudhi@ganga:/projects/project1
export CVSROOT
then logged in as sudhi
again cvs login
given the passwd.

now if i went to import the module to the repository
it imported into repository but it gaven an error saying that
cvs server:cannot open/root/.cvsignore: permission denied
cvs [server aborted]:cannot chdir(/root): permission deined
and it exits.

but the files will have been added to the repositiory.


but when i checkout the same module i get the same error

cvs server:cannot open/root/.cvsignore: permission denied
cvs [server aborted]:cannot chdir(/root): permission deined

but it creates a directory by that module but without any files and only
CVS DIRECTORY under that.

the  above mentioned error is coming for all the users irrespective of
the group and access limits.

please help me in this regard.

thanking you

sudarshan
