Hi,
I'm an admin on the GNU src-highlite project (group id 217), trying to check
out the web pages CVS repo to update the homepage:
$ cvs -d:ext:[email protected]:/web/src-highlite co src-highlite
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot stat /var/lock/cvs/web/src-highlite: No such
file or directory
SSH auth works and ViewVC shows the repo fine, so it looks like the lock
directory /var/lock/cvs/web/src-highlite just needs to be recreated on the
server.
Thanks!
