Hi I'm quite sure I just read about this recently but I can't find a mail mentioning it again.
We just set up a new repository and tried to work with it. Goes fine except some errors I couldn't resolve yet. Server: cvs 1.11.9 Client: cvs 1.12.1 (both Linux) inetd.conf: cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/bin/cvs cvs (-f) --allow-root=/home/cvsroot pserver I have checked out a project and when I do update I get this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/cvssources/indel/incointerface$ cvs -n update cvs server: WARNING: global `-l' option ignored. cvs server: cannot open /root/.cvsignore: Permission denied ? Makefile.in ? aclocal.m4 cvs update: cannot open /root/.cvsignore: Permission denied cvs update: Updating . cvs update: Updating docu cvs update: Updating src I know that the -l was removed from recent versions but I never created or changed a .cvsrc file. Can I prevent this error except by upgrading the cvs tools? The .cvsignore error I read up on in the manual and added the initially missing -f switch to inetd.conf. Then the error changed to: cvs server: cannot open /dev/null/.cvsignore: Not a directory Do I need to create a home dir for the user cvs?
