Did you chmod g+wrx /data or chmod -R g+wrx /data? What error messages were you seeing?
Being in /data I typed
chmod -R 775 cvsrep
or being in / using
chmod -R 775 /data/cvsrep
- one of these I am no 100% sure now. I *am* sure we used a numerical argument for the rights. If change the cvs-user in /data/cvsrep/CVSROOT/passwd to cvsun (for my user now) he gets an
setgid failed: Operation not permitted
Verifying in /etc/group I see that "cvsun" is a member of the "cvs" group.
Changing back in /data/cvsrep/CVSROOT/passwd to cvsun to "cvs" it works again.
| Is there an example on how to do this somewhere online? We could also live with using several repositories on the same server, but this doesn't seem possible as there is only one /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver file on the server stating where the repository lies, right? The texts on multiple repositories we have found all talk about checking out from different server to the same directories on the client which is not what we want.
You could set them up as different --allow-root options to your cvs server executable in /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver
Brilliant! :-) A quick check seems to indicate that it works exactly as we want. I never thought of using several --allow-root arguments in the cvspserver file. That makes admin of the stuff easy too. Thanks!
Another idea; we tried this quickly before doing the above. Should it not be possible to assoaciate different cvspserver files with different port numbers? So to have the cvs server to look on port 2401, 2402 and so on for different users? It doesn't matter now when the above works, but just out of curiosity.
best regards,
Lars
