Hello there!

I recently tried to upgrade from cvs to cvsnt on my Redhat 7.3 box. I setupped 
a chrooted jail for the "normal" cvs which worked quite fine for months. Now 
after I copied the newly compiled cvsnt binaries and other needed libs 
(kerberos and stuff) into the jail the cvs access fails with

cvs [login aborted]: bad auth protocol start: BEGIN AUTH REQUEST

I thought this may come through the fact that I still use the old-style cvs as 
client, so I removed it and upgraded to cvsnt there as well, but still 
getting the above error.
I google'd around and found out that cvsnt needs to receive \r\n lineendings 
while the transport protocol just triggers \n, therefor the above error pops 
up. Unfortunately I have no clue how to say cvsnt to accept plain UNIX line 
endings.

Any help is much appreciated!

Bet regards,
Tommy.
