I recently installed cvs 1.11.13 (from source) on a Red Hat 9 box, and am having issues connecting from remote machines. My setup is below...
CVSROOT is set to /webserver/vhosts with these lines in /etc/profile...
>CVSROOT=/webserver/vhosts >export PATH USER LOGNAME MAIL HOSTNAME HISTSIZE INPUTRC CVSROOT
Echoing out CVSROOT return this...
>[EMAIL PROTECTED] CVSROOT]# echo $CVSROOT >/webserver/vhosts
The xinetd entry for the cvs server is as such...
>service cvspserver
>{
> port = 2401
> socket_type = stream
> protocol = tcp
> user = root
> wait = no
> disable = no
> type = UNLISTED
> server = /usr/local/bin/cvs
> server_args = -f --allow-root /webserver/vhosts pserver
>}I have added my login as a user, which created a 'passwd' file under CVSROOT, and contains this...
>jnichel:VK8EEGWUHyegg:
All is working fine when I use cvs locally, but when I try to connect remotely, I get this....
>cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/CVSROOT login
>/CVSROOT: no such repository
>cvs login: authorization failed: server devbox.local rejected access to /CVSROOT for user jnichel
I've also tried with just / as my root, and get the same error. I errors like this on google and the cvshome.org site, and per cvshome.org, I telnet'ed to the cvs server from a remote box, and got the response that the FAQ says I should get if the cvs server is working fine.....
>[EMAIL PROTECTED] jnichel]$ telnet devbox.local 2401 >Trying 192.168.1.2... >Connected to devbox.local. >Escape character is '^]'. >foo >cvs [pserver aborted]: bad auth protocol start: foo > >Connection closed by foreign host.
I'm at my wits end. Can someone shed some light on this? TIA
