Actually, I accidentally hit reply on the previous msg from the list and it went straight to you instead of to the list. So I reposted it to the list and it is waiting for moderator approval (exceeded max post length). > Testing cvsservice with -test is a little tricky because SYSTEM is the account with all the privileges for > switching user context.

Is cvsservice -test not the right way to test out the cvs server? I kind of expected it to work out of the box, to be honest, and when it didn't I started getting frustrated due to the lack of information. The error msg is so vague, I'm not sure if it is a client/server communication problem, or if it is actually and authentication problem. I tried looking into the code to see where that magic happens, but didn't really have much luck there either. Any suggestions what I can try / look to get it working? Or what/how would be a good procedure to set up a test repo/environment? Thanks, Eric _________________________________________________________________ We are your photos.
