I am trying to setup the cvsnt server on a Linux box running RedHat 9.0
I downloaded the .rpm and installed it.
I then tried to follow the linux directions but I must be missing something because when I try and connect with SmartCVS from a Windows XP box I get a "You could not get authenticated by the CVS server" error.
I went through the installation guide as follows:
CVS Server Configuration - I uncommented the repository lines:
Repository0=/usr/local/cvs
Repository0Name=/cvs
Repository0Description=ETS Repository
Under the CVS run with xinetd section I modifed the cvs as follows:
service cvspserver
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
group = root
log_type = FILE /var/log/cvspserver
env = 'HOME=/home/cvsroot'
server = /usr/bin/cvsnt
server_args = authserver
groups = yes
log_on_failure += USERID
flags = REUSE IPv6
mdns = no # Lockserver handles mdns broadcast
}
for the Lockserver, the cvslockd file was already loaded in the /etc/init.d directory for I just ran:
chkconfig --list | grep cvslockd
with the following results:
cvslockd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
I then ran the cvs -d :local:/usr/local/cvs init
I then set up the PAM stuff per the directions.
I tested the cvs -version and the telnet localhost 2402 and both seem to be working.
In the SmartCVS I use:
User root
Server address 172.16.100.103
Path to repository /usr/local/cvs
and the password.
After that point I am lost. I am not sure what else I need to do or change or point to another location to make it work.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Calvin
