From my observations, CVS is looking in the home directory for .cvsignore. When running as a pserver it still looks in the home directory. The inetd daemon is running under root so CVS appears to look in root's home directory (/root) for the .cvsignore file. When I set up CVS on RH6.2 I did

I've posted my patches to the RCVS project on SourceForge. The "cvs unedit" implementation will not unmodify the file. If you want to have unedit automatically unmodify files you would either have to wrap CVS in a script or submit a patch that allows unmodify operations along with "cvs unedit".

Broken pipe signals occur when you have a pipe open for output, and the process at the other end of that pipe closes it before reading an end of file condition. This might be due to an explicit close, an early exit, or a normal exit upon reading a token from the pipe. Try looking for all the
