John, Since you are not specifying the CVSROOT with the -d option the value for CVSROOT might be different in the script then at the command line. The script might be setting the CVSROOT environment variable or the CVS_RSH environment variable, for example. You must have CVSROOT set on your system or you would need to use the -d option on the command line. Check the script to see if it is setting those variables. If the script is running as a different user I guess it's also possible it might be using a different environment, too, but given Windows I doubt that is the case.

I am trying to run a vss to cvs script (vss2cvs.pl) and I am getting the following error: c: Unknown Host rsh: can't establish connection cvs [import aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any) ++++ cvs -f import -m "Directory structure from VSS" "RK" from VSS transfer ++++ However, if I enter that line of the script manually at the command line (cvs -f import -m "Directory structure from VSS" "RK" fromVSS transfer), it works fine. I have both the cvs and vss repos on an XP workstation and have installed activeperl as described in the install doc. Thanks for any help. -John ---------------------------------------------------------- ------ Visit our Internet site at http://www.reuters.com To find out more about Reuters Products and Services visit http://www.reuters.com/productinfo Any views expressed in this message are those of the individual sender, except where the sender specifically states them to be the views of Reuters Ltd. _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
