[cvsnt] Can't log in to cvsnt 2.5.01

[commedo]

I've already add:

RunAsUser=cvsnt

In /etc/cvsnt/PServer. I copy the file from /etc/cvsnt/PServer.example and
only write down my modification.

Sorry, still not working by getting the following messages:

$ /usr/local/bin/cvs -d :pserver:cvsnt at host:/usr/local/cvsroot login
Logging in to :pserver:cvsnt at host:2401:/usr/local/cvsroot
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: authorization failed: server host rejected access to
/usr/local/cvsroot for user cvsnt

regards,


commedo

Hello commedo,

Monday, May 16, 2005, 3:36:43 AM, you wrote:

Here something is missing. Why don't you edit a copy of the
PServer.example?
You need at least one additional line:

RunAsUser=cvsnt



c> (3) /etc/xinet.d/cvsnt

c> service cvspserver
c> {
c>         disable        = no
c>         socket_type    = stream
c>         wait           = no
c>         user           = cvsnt
c>         group          = cvsnt
c>         log_type       = FILE /home/cvsnt/cvspserver.log
c>         env            = 'HOME=/user/local/cvsroot'
c>         server         = /usr/local/bin/cvsnt
c>         server_args    = authserver
c> }

The cvs-process still has to be started as root/root. It will than
switch to cvs when the user is authenticated.

c> cvs -d :pserver:cvsnt at 192.168.50.41:/usr/local/cvsroot login
c> Logging in to :pserver:cvsnt at 192.168.50.41:2401:/usr/local/cvsroot
c> CVS password:
c> cvs [login aborted]: authorization failed: server 192.168.50.41 rejected
c> access to /usr/local/cvsroot for user cvsnt


the rest looks quite ok.
