hi all,
i am sure somebody here will ba able to help me out with my small problem...
i seem to have difficulties using cvs through ssh
first let me explain my config:
- linux-box (mandrake 8.1) with cvs repository and ssh daemon
- windows workstation with cygwin installed, this is where my working
sources are located
to start working with cvs, i imported the sources from my windows machine to
the cvs repository using the cvs-pserver access method and everything works
fine. i can actually do everything i need with pserver access, as you can
see:
X:\development\projects\test>set
HOME=X:\development\projects\test
X:\development\projects\test>set
CVSROOT=:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/cvsrepos/test
X:\development\projects\test>cvs login
(Logging in to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
CVS password:
X:\development\projects\test>cvs update
cvs server: Updating proj1
cvs server: Updating proj1/a-subdir
cvs server: Updating proj1/a-subdir/subsubdir
cvs server: Updating proj1/b-subdir
X:\development\projects\test>cvs logout
(Logging out of [EMAIL PROTECTED])
BUT, since i also need to have security, i would like to use ssh (instead of
pserver) from my windows machine.
ssh seems to be working properly as you can see:
X:\development\projects\test>ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Last login: Fri Oct 5 10:06:17 2001 from 192.168.0.1
[suske@mandrake suske]$ ls -l
total 4
drwx------ 2 suske suske 4096 Oct 3 14:11
tmp/
[suske@mandrake suske]$ logout
its only when i try to use ssh with cvs that it doesn't work. here is what i
get:
X:\development\projects\test>set
HOME=X:\development\projects\test
X:\development\projects\test>set CVS_RSH=ssh
X:\development\projects\test>set
CVSROOT=:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/cvsrepos/test
X:\development\projects\test>cvs update
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
cvs update: authorization failed: server 192.168.1.1
rejected access to /usr/cvsrepos/test for user suske
cvs update: used empty password; try "cvs login" with a
real password
it says "try 'cvs login' with a real password, but when i try that it says
it can only use login for the pserver method:
X:\development\projects\test>cvs login
cvs login: can only use pserver method with `login'
command
cvs [login aborted]: CVSROOT:
:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/cvsrepos/test
what am i doing wrong?
ps: sorry for this long explanation, but i thought more info was better than
not enough info...
