Hi Todd and Bob,
  Thanks a lot for the help you offered me toward setting up CVS repository.I 
think it is set up in our system.I would be really thankful if you further 
guide me in Using CVS.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.I have even made clear of certain questions which were unanswered in 
my previous mails.

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 JavaApplpwd #assumption it 
returns /appl/src/cvs/export CVSROOT=/appl/src/cvs/JavaApplcvs init<root on 
cvs_server ,set the foll permissions>mkdir JavaAppl/projectdirchown 
:sadiascvsgroup JavaAppl/projectdirchmod g+rws JavaAppl/projectdir#you'll want 
to tighten up security on the following directory later.chown :sadiascvsgroup 
JavaAppl/CVSROOTchmod g+rws JavaAppl/CVSROOT


then as sadia on a_workstation:export 
CVSROOT=:ext:cvs_server:/appl/src/cvs/JavaApplexport CVS_RSH=sshcvs checkout 
projectdirdate > 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,vdoneChecking in 
mydate;/appl/src/cvs/JavaAppl/projectdir/mydate,v  <--  mydateinitial revision: 
1.1done
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls -ld ~/projectdir/drwxr-xr-x  3 sadia users 4096 Mar 17

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/JavaApplexport CVS_RSH=sshcvs 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
