Hi Larry,
Thanks for the prompt response.
You were right on that one. I stopped the ypibnd - NIS binding process and
the things seem to be moving forward.
Now I created a sample project dir 'myproj' having sub-dirs 'bin', 'src' &
'inc'.
When I try to *import* this project into the repository it throws the
following error:
cvs import -m "initial import into CVS" myproj mohit start
cvs server: cannot open /root/.cvsignore: Permission denied
No conflicts created by this import
I found out that the project dir 'myproj' was created but the sub-dirs
were not created.
I tried searching for the '.cvsignore' file. It doesn't exist.
What could be the problem.
Also, how can join the mailing-list if any.
Thanks & Regards,
-Mohit Lad
