[cvsnt] Client connection failing to cvsnt on a HP-UX UNIX box using pserver

[Haitham Hamad]

I fixed the file and reinstalled, I had to change cvs -t -d
:pserver:localhost version to 
 
#cvs -t -d :pserver:oracle at localhost:/webtest version
  -> Tracelevel set to 1.  PID is 18344
  -> Session ID is 47a8404cbfae31a8
  -> Loading protocol /usr/local/lib/cvsnt/pserver_protocol
  -> main loop with CVSROOT=:pserver:oracle at localhost:/webtest
  -> Config file name /home/oracle/.cvs/cvspass
cvs version: Empty password used - try 'cvs login' with a real
password
 
cvs [version aborted]: bad auth protocol start: BEGIN AUTH REQUEST
 
 
the user is oracle and CVSROOT is set to /webtest. I have a .cvs
directory under /home/oracle. I created a file cvspass and copied
oracle:<its password> to it, and I got 
 
  -> Tracelevel set to 1.  PID is 19060
  -> Session ID is 4a74404cc24f1bfc
  -> Loading protocol /usr/local/lib/cvsnt/pserver_protocol
