RE: new cvs server issue

[Gagneet Singh]

Hi!

|I have the code from an existing cvs server. And I have
|configured another cvs server. 

By the above I understand that the code you have got is a checked out
copy of the server source, or do you have the actual repository as it
exists on the server?

|How can I import the code into the new server such that after
|the import the code has the same release and revision tags ? 

>From the above, I got that you have the checked out copy with you. What
you require is the CVS repository copy with the files named as
"file_name1.c,v". These are the files containing the actual code with
the release and revision tags. Not the ones which you checkout from the
server. Those are ordinary files which are used for building the
application and not for use in CVS.

Am I right in the conclusion given above. If not then, there seems to be
something else wrong. Please send the complete details of your server
and client which you are using. Also, see if you can get the repository
copy and copy it to the new server as it was defined in the older one.
You can use another folder, but you will have to configure the
/etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver file for this change also.

Hope this helps,

Gagneet
