Hi Pushpa

 

I dont know that what you are doing so I am explaining whole process for using pserver  except changes for /etc/inetd.conf and /etc/services which you changed already.

 

 

first of all edit  $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/passwd file to put in entries in that file.  The entries in passwd file goes as

 

username : passwd(encrypted) : system Username(optional)

 

the Script for generating password is as follows

 

#!/usr/bin/perl

srand (time());
my $randletter = "(int (rand (26)) + (int (rand (1) + .5) % 2 ? 65 : 97))";
my $salt = sprintf ("%c%c", eval $randletter, eval $randletter);
my $plaintext = shift;
my $crypttext = crypt ($plaintext, $salt);

print "${crypttext}\n";

say you saved this file as passgen.pl than you can generate password as 

> passgen.pl "Password" 

XAsesdsO

will give you some encrypted passwd which you copy paste in front of username say xyz than your  passwd file shd look like

xyz:XAsesdsO

you can use the command
 
:pserver:address@hidden:/home/cvsroot/acca_c1b login
and in winCVS what is your settings in Admin->Preferences

Hi All,

cvs server: cannot find module `acca_c1b' - ignored
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot expand modules
I am getting this error when I try to check out the module using WinCVS 1.11 module c1btool
Setting in WinCVS is
:pserver:address@hidden:/home/cvsroot/acca_c1b
In the server in inetd.conf file have the following line
etc/inetd,conf
cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/bin/cvs cvs --allow-root=/home/cvsroot/acca_c1b pserver
etc/services
cvspserver 2401/tcp
cvspserver 2401/udp
The environment variable is set to CVSROOT=/home/cvsroot
In CVSROOT directory in modules file c1btool -a acca_c1b

Could someone help to solve the problem.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Pushpa
