hi,
i am a newbie to the cvs, and i am experiencing errors with the setting up process of
cvs
it gave me this error of :
cvs [login aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
i have currently downloaded the source code for cvs 1.11.5 from the cvshome site,
and compiled it on the sun solaris 2.8 operation system,
the following steps are taken:
(1) gzip -d cvs-*.gz (for decompressing the source file to tar format)
(2) i copy the file to the directory of /usr/ibm/
(3) then i tar xvf the tar file , and it produce the directory of /usr/ibm/cvs-1.11.5,
followed by the respective subdirectories
(4) thereafter, i run the command
./noautomake.sh --noautoconf
(5) the command
./configure (is run)
(6) make (is run)
(7) make install (is run)
(8) then i initialize the repository which i created (/src/repository)
cvs -d /src/repository init
(9) then i make changes to my /etc/inetd.conf
in the etc/inetd/inetd.conf : the following is added
cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/ibm/cvs-1.11.5
cvs -f --allow-root=/usr/repository pserver
(10) in the etc/inetd/services : the following is added
cvspserver 2401/tcp
(11) then i chmod u-w for the above services and inetd.conf file, to make them
non-writable
(12) then i restart the inetd and services using:
pkill -HUP inetd
(13) the services seem to run correctly as i manage to sift the desired output from
netstat -an | grep '2401'
(14) then i tried this:
cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:$CVSROOT login
it shows:
Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/src/repository
CVS password:
after keying in the password: (this error msg shows up)
cvs [login aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
would appreciate any advice given:))
it seems that not even login validation of password is done, otherwise they would give
password or authentication error.
thanks
