Re: cannot commit (w/ wincvs)

[Andy Nuss]

Sorry about delay in response.  I've
set up CVS server on Linux.  I only have the root
user on Linux.  I used passwd file.  I created
a repository called dummy1.  Am able to login
with users and passwords in the passwd file.
Am able to get modules.  Am able to checkin new
modules.

The connect string is:
address@hidden:/usr/local/cvs/dummy1

When trying to commit a change, I get:
cvs commit -m "no message" green.bmp (in directory
D:\MyRepository\module1\folderA)
cvs [server aborted]: you are unknown to this system

thx, Andy
