Greetings, I got a cvs authentification problem with the following items :
Used elements : cvsnt maven 3 scm 1.6 Windows 2003 Server Procedure follows (No .cvspass in my USER_DIR) : . 1. I run a mvn --encrypt password password and copy paste the result in my <scm><connection> tags. 2. I run scm:status -> Authentification fails, .cvspass is created with a wrong password. 3. I login to cvs with my cvsnt client and retrieve the password from the registry. 4. I copy paste the password from the registry into the csvpass, in place of the one generated by the Maven plugin. 5. I run scm:status -> Authentification succeeds. .cvspass still contains the password (of course, since a mvn -X shows me that file creation was skipped) 6. I change the user/password in the <scm> tag, putting invalid ones : I run scm:status -> Authentification succeeds. .cvspass still contains the password : my credentials were ignored since contained in cvspass. My questions : Why is maven unable to generate a proper cvs encrypted password and store it in the .cvspass ? What did I miss ? I suppose the credentials contained in the pom only serve as fallback if no .cvspass exist (given that the Source control used is CVS). Is it correct ? Thank you for your help !
