Re: Problems connecting across the internett...

Nope...well there is, but thats been cleared for port 2401.
Just found out why...in my xinetd.conf i have a default section. In that 
section there is a line "only_from = 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2" which is 
my two private ip adresses. When I removed that line from the cvspserver 
file in "/etc/xinet.d", i guess the line in the default section in 
xinetd.conf was stepping in. Am I right?

Now I get this error when checking out a larger project from the 
repository across the net. Happens after it allready has checked out a 
number of files from different subdirs:

cvs server: failed to create lock directory for 
`/usr/local/cvsroot/Project/Doc/Feedback' 
(/var/lock/cvs/Project/Doc/Feedback/#cvs.lock): Permission denied
cvs server: failed to obtain dir lock in repository 
`/usr/local/cvsroot/Project/Doc/Feedback'
cvs [server aborted]: read lock failed - giving up

Error, CVS operation failed

ehhh, missing chmod g+s on the lockdir?

Olav!
