[cvsnt] Access for client to change his password

Tue Nov 20 11:38:37 GMT 2007

Sachin,

You need to ask these questions of the group - I'm not your personal
assistant - do NOT e-mail me directly.

TortoiseCVS has CVSNT client in it - that's all the clients you need -
but your ONE server needs to be cvsnt not cvs - since you didn't answer
my original question then I've got no idea what versions and what
software you are using.

As I wrote- if a user needs to change their password, and you are using
pserver, and they have cvsnt (ie: tortoisecvs) then the user just does
"cvs passwd" command.

Arthur

	Arthur,
	Thanks for ur reply. But still i have a doubt.
	why we need to install CVSNT software in client machine? User
usally do check in(commit)  and check out process. If we install CVSNT
in client then why we need to install in server only?Means i would like
to give example of my company. In my company there is one server and
around 40 developers. Every body is using Eclipse and TortoiseCVS as a
Client tool.It is not feasible to go to all computers and install that
software.Is there any other option like  we make use of any third party
tool for example we can make use of CVS Report.

	Regards 
	Sachin.

				The way the client would do this depends
on the protocol (eg: pserver,
				sspi, ssh), the CVSROOT/config file
SystemAuth setting and the version
				of cvs/cvsnt server.
