Re: I have encounter a problem in CVS setup

[Qian Xin]

yes, some analysis of this problem is here.
https://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.20/cvs_21.html#SEC189


After I updated to version 1.11.19, the error report still exist.
And I fixed it by special -f in xinet startup file for cvs.


The following is some details:
The article has introduced two way to resolve it:

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
then you probably haven't specified `-f' in `inetd.conf'. (In releases
prior to CVS 1.11.1, this problem can be caused by your system setting
the $HOME environment variable for programs being run by inetd. In this
case, you can either have inetd run a shell script that unsets $HOME
and then runs CVS, or you can use env to run CVS with a pristine
environment.)

1,
unset home
in my xinet file, I found home has already been unset; so this way
cannot worked.(I have verify it.)

And after I upgrate, this problem still exist.

2,  -f   To make cvs do not read the cvs startup file (~/.cvsrc).
It works.
