RE: [FR-devel] [ANN] The FreeRIDE CVS Repository

[Curt Hibbs]

It turned out that my whole problem with getting SSH to work with WinCVS under windows was that after I uploaded my public key to Savannah, I needed to wait a while for it to become active. Since there was no mention of this in the Savannah instructions, and I had never been through this before (here or on SourceForge), I didn't know about this.

 

Now that I waited long enough, everything is working just fine.

The FreeRIDE CVS repository is now operational (thanks to Laurent). The CVS Repository is part of our Savannah project site at http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/freeride/ (just to there and click on "CVS repository" to get access instructions).

 

What is currently checked-in to CVS is the slightly newer that zip file that Rich last posted and is what would have been core-0.0.4

 

I'm sure you Linux people are going to find it pretty easy to get setup. However, I have (so far) been unable to get SSH working with CVS and connecting to our Savannah repository, so if any of you Windows user get it figured out, please let me know how you did it.

 

I've been using the following information sources:

 

    http://www.wincvs.org/ssh.html

    http://devguy.com/fp/cfgmgmt/cvs/cvs_ssh.htm

    http://www.cs.bris.ac.uk/~cooper/sshcvs.html

I was doing a little more research, and I found two things that could be related to my problem:

 

1) After you upload you public key to Sourceforge (should be the same for Savannah) you have to wait some period of time for it to become active (up to 6 hours?) I found that here:

    http://denissov.com/howto/WinCVS_SourceForge.htm

 

2) Once source says that the particular version of SSH that I am using generates bad keys:

        (hmm... I seem to have lost the URL).

 

Well, seems like lots of info out there (Laurent sent me this: http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=769&group_id=1) -- I'll just keep trying.
