I've confirmed all my configs are correct, and that the path to cvs can be
seen by everyone... re-built the repository, making sure ownership and
permissions are correct... made sure the passwd file is correct... ugh,
and just enjoyed a quick city-wide power outage (yay for "continue
interrupted message"!)... and I STILL can't connect via pserver:
> cvs -d :pserver:zaren@(host):/usr/local/cvsrepos login
CVS password:
cvs login: authorization failed: server (host) rejected access to
/usr/local/cvsrepos for user zaren
The Cederqvist suggests telnetting to the server to troubleshoot:
One good debugging tool is to "telnet servername 2401". After
connecting, send any text (for example "foo" followed by return). If
CVS is working correctly, it will respond with
cvs [pserver aborted]: bad auth protocol start: foo
which I did:
> telnet (host) 2401
Trying (host)...
Connected to (host).
Escape character is '^]'.
xxx
cvs [pserver aborted]: bad auth protocol start: xxx
Connection closed by foreign host.
So it appears that the server *is* working correctly, but it still won't
let me connect. I'm going a bit buggy trying to figure out why this still
isn't working. Any other idea from someone with more experience? :)
