That's almost true. Since/if you're using :pserver: on the server side then you need to modify "inetd.conf" option "--allow-root=" value. Read this: http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.14/cvs_2.html#SEC30 Also consider cvs will use repositories identified by symbolic links and accepts multiple "--allow-root=" options. Consider doing: mv <oldname> <newname> # new name is hard linked ln <newname> <oldname> # old name is symbolic link In "inetd.conf" use "--allow-root=<newname> --allow-root=<oldname>" and then access by old AND new names should work concurrently. > concerned about history - but I see nothing in CVSROOT that is depending > on the name of the repository... Don't know about this one myself. _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
