Re: cvs server set up?

[David Taylor]

You can start with the section of the CVS manual called "Remote
repositories" at:

http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs_2.html#SEC26

If you choose to set up the server using CVS password authentication
(called "pserver" access) the manual has instructions for setting up
/etc/inetd.conf. If your're using xinetd instead, see:

http://www.mail-archive.com/address@hidden/msg05589.html

If there are problems, consult the section of the CVS manual called
"Trouble making a connection to a CVS server" at:

http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs_21.html#SEC182

Questions about CVS server are definitely frequently asked, so do check
the CVS FAQ as well, at:

http://ccvs.cvshome.org/fom/fom.cgi

(In particular, take note of  "Why can't I checkout modules?? The error
message is --> 'cvs server: cannot open /root/.cvsignore:access
denied'")

good luck,
