Re: CVS Setup Help Needed

I need more information to really be able to help but I'll give it a good
shot.

Did you do a cvs init?  

Verify that cvs commands work from the node where cvs is installed?

The inetd.conf doesn't look correct.  Mine looks like this:
        cvs stream tcp nowait root /opt/cvs/bin/cvs cvs -f
--allow-root=/export/cvsroot pserver
        I initially did not use the "-f" and I lived to regret it.    
            Sigh, it took me days to find that type-o. 

Have you set up the /etc/services file?  

See section 2.9.3 in the Cederqvist
(http://cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs.html) for help with the inetd and
services files.

WINcvs
In WINcvs, you first need it to login successfully before you can do
anything. 
        Admin menu pick ... Login

To interact with the repository:
        Create menu pick,   General Tab fill is the first text field with
the items in < > tailored to your site.
        :pserver:<address@hidden>:<$CVSROOT>
        
        for example,  :pserver:address@hidden:/export/cvsroot

I'm on the digest so feel free to email me directly.

Good luck.

Jeanie
