Hi,
Thanks a lot for the help you offered me toward setting up CVS repository.I
think it is set up in our system.I wanted to tell you what I did to make the
Repository projectdir which contains CVS and mydate on workstation and mydate
on cvs_server
as root on the cvs_server:
edit /etc/group and add a group for your cvs work, i.e. add a line similar to
the one of the following:
users:x:100:sadia,user1,user2,user3
sadiascvsgroup:x:800:sadia,user1,user2,user3,userN
chown sadia:sadiascvsgroup /appl/src/cvs/
then as sadia on cvs_server:
cd /appl/src/cvs/
mkdir JavaAppl
pwd #assumption it returns /appl/src/cvs/
export CVSROOT=/appl/src/cvs/JavaAppl
cvs init
<root on cvs_server ,set the foll permissions>
mkdir JavaAppl/projectdir
chown :sadiascvsgroup JavaAppl/projectdir
chmod g+rws JavaAppl/projectdir
#you'll want to tighten up security on the following directory later.
chown :sadiascvsgroup JavaAppl/CVSROOT
chmod g+rws JavaAppl/CVSROOT
then as sadia on a_workstation:
export CVSROOT=:ext:cvs_server:/appl/src/cvs/JavaAppl
export CVS_RSH=ssh
cvs checkout projectdir
date > projectdir/mydate /*cd projectdir*/
cvs add mydate
cvs commit -m"a comment" mydate
OUTPUT AFTER cvs commit:
RCS file: /appl/src/cvs/JavaAppl/projectdir/mydate,v
done
Checking in mydate;
/appl/src/cvs/JavaAppl/projectdir/mydate,v <-- mydate
initial revision: 1.1
done
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls -ld ~/projectdir/
drwxr-xr-x 3 sadia users 4096 Mar 17 2008 /users/sadia/projectdir/
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ls -l ~/projectdir/
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 sadia users 4096 Mar 17 2008 CVS
-rw-r--r-- 1 sadia users 29 Mar 17 2008 mydate

As I have no idea using CVS,Could be more elaborate on what the users should do
to start working on the projects.Could you please guide me as a user in
starting and working on projects using CVS.What should I do after the following
4 commands on terminals to get started working using CVS
as user1 on another_workstation:
export CVSROOT=:ext:cvs_server:/appl/src/cvs/JavaAppl
export CVS_RSH=ssh
cvs checkout projectdir
Changes I made:
I haven't changed the permissions ,so I made root only do the chown and chmod
I changed into the projectdir on workstation and user sadia to type
cvs add and cvs commit commands
To retain the change even on the server side ,so that every time I log in I do
not have to make any changes.

If you are using NIS/LDAP then all the clients have the same user names,
passwords and groups.
But you have not indicated that the systems are using NIS/LDAP or independent
user authentication/authorization configurations.

I AM NOT USING NIS/LDAP ,SORRY FOR MY PREVIOUS MAIL.I AM USING NFS AND EACH
USER HAS AN INDEPENDANT USER AUTHENTICATION TO ACCESS THE SYSTEMS IN
NETWORK.THERE ARE 4 RHL SYSTEMS(1 server and 3 clients) CONNECTED IN NETWORK
AND
THERE IS SUN GRID CLUSTER SOFTWARE INSTALLED .
I would like to get your support and help for further working of projects on
CVS.
Thank you
Sadia
