I'm running a CVS pserver as a non-root user (cvs) on host cvs. I have
created a mapping for each user in the CVSROOT/passwd file:
user1::cvs
user2::cvs
...
A few users are getting a "setgid failed: Operation not permitted" error,
but only when accessing the repository via SSH port forwarding (ssh -L
2401:cvs:2401, with CVSROOT=:pserver:address@hidden:/cvs). Everything
works when accessing the repository directly (with
CVSROOT=:pserver:address@hidden:/cvs).
The server version is 1.11.5. Every file in the repository is owned by
group cvs (which is the primary group of user cvs). Should the files be
owned by user cvs as well?
Any ideas what the problem might be, or how to go about tracking it down?
