I am having trouble setting up cvspserver with xinetd. # echo $CVS_RSH # echo $CVSROOT :pserver:dan@localhost:/home/cvs # cvs login (Logging in to dan@localhost) CVS password: cvs [login aborted]: recv() from server localhost: Connection reset by peer # cat /etc/cvs/cvs.conf CVS_REPOS="/home/cvs" CVSROOT="/home/cvs" My cvs setup for xinetd service cvspserver { disable = no socket_type = stream protocol = tcp passenv = wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/cvspserver instances = 9 log_on_success += USERID # localhost, LAN, work only_from = 127.0.0.1/32 192.168.100.0/24 136.159.0.0/16 } This does not wrong when using WinCVS or from command line on the server (even as root). Using CVS_RSH=ssh and :ext: will work, but I need :pserver: for users with no system account. Thanks...Dan.
