I am trying to set-up a CVS pserver on my RedHat 7.1 development machine.
I tried reading the CVS book at http://cvsbook.red-bean.com, but it
does not cover xinetd, so I tried to adapt it myself.
Here is what I did as root:
cvs -d /usr/local/cvsroot init
/usr/sbin/useradd cvs
cd /usr/local/cvsroot
chgrp -R cvs .
chmod ug+rwx . CVSROOT
vi /etc/xinetd.d/cvs and added these lines:
service cvs
{
port = 2401
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
user = root
group = cvs
server = /usr/bin/cvs
server_args = --allow-root=/usr/local/cvsroot pserver
type = UNLISTED
wait = no
}
Restarted xinetd:
/etc/init.d/xinetd restart
vi /usr/local/cvsroot/CVSROOT/passwd
Added my login and password copied from from /etc/shadow
I then tried to test it by going to a shell with my user account.
I typed:
cvs -d :pserver:neil@localhost:/usr/local/cvsroot login
It asked me for my password and reported no errors, so I thought that
everything should be OK.
Next, I tried to import a new project, so I went to the
directory containing the project and typed:
cvs -d :pserver:neil@localhost:/usr/local/cvsroot import -m "Test Project"
testProject neil start
I got these error messages:
cvs server: cannot open /root/.cvsignore: Permission denied
cvs server: cannot make path to /usr/local/cvsroot/testProject: Permission
denied
cvs server: Importing /usr/local/cvsroot/testProject/src
cvs server: ERROR: cannot mkdir /usr/local/cvsroot/testProject/src -- not
added: No such file or directory
No conflicts created by this import
Any ideas why this is occurring?
Thanks,
Neil.
