pserver ? Why not just :local:/usr/local/CVS ? No xinetd, no login, no passwords to set up... When you put a cvs server on your colocation box I recommend :ext: with CVS_RSH=ssh and public key authentication. I assume you already have the ssh part set up ? Othwerwise how do you reach your colocated machine ? > I may also have Unix permission problems - I had to make CVSROOT chmod 757 > (though there may be "lesser" options - Unix permissions are not instinctive > yet!) The usual directory permissions are 770 + setgid to a group to which all the developers belong. The setgid bit (on Linux) is to make sure any subdirectories inherit the group of their parents. -- pa at panix dot com _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
