FWIW, I use the PushOK plugin (not free). I find this integration useful
in that it cvs-edits files automatically when I start editing them, and
I can use the IDE's project feature (which groups files into projects,
which not always are also separated in different directories) to see
which files are modified and to commit files.

It's not a replacement for something like WinCvs (or the command line
:), but a sometimes convenient addition.

I don't use it with remote repos. I find the response times too long;
they interrupt my work flow when repo accesses happen automatically.

Also note that the advantages depend on the IDE and how it uses the
SCCI.

Hi,

now I could build cvsnt 2.5.03.2382 on OpenSolaris (x86) and got it running.

But there is necessary to patch it. The vanilla version uses the system 
getopt function which is not compatible with the GNU getopt. Therefore cvsnt 
can't parse the options correctly. After forcing the use of the cvsnt 
version of getopt it works (I hope... only a few tests till now).

cvsnt 2.5.04.2403 works in principle but it does not cooperate with the 
inetd of OpenSolaris. And I could not build newer versions because a lot of 
linker errors.

If someone is interested in using of cvsnt on OpenSolaris and if he need 
help he can contact me.

Best regards,
Tilo Riemer

Hi,


We have CVSNT 2.5.04 [(Zen) Build 3236] server running on RHEL ES 4. On
client side we have WinCVS 2.0.2.4 on WinXP SP3.
I am trying to connect to the server using :pserver:

I earlier got some error messages (
http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2009-April/032098.html) and I am still
struggling, trying to establish connection between client & server. I am now
getting the following error:
--------------------

connect to 10.5.68.161:2401 failed: No connection could be made because the
target machine actively refused it.
--------------------

After searching through the archives, I got that "This means CVSNT is not up

2401) from outside."

So, I checked the following:

I think the firewall is OFF. Please correct me if I?m wrong.
--------------------
[root at localhost ~]# netstat -nap | grep 2401

Does the above mean that 2401 on server side is not listening?

Of course I can (and will do it if desired) send the patches but I'm not a 
friend of autoconf & co. That means I have run ./configure at first and 
after that I have adapted config.h and lib/Makefile to force compiling of 
lib/getopt_long.c.

The right way is adding a check for getopt to the autoconf stuff...

There's already a getopt compatibility test in configure.in, which is 
designed for OSX which has a broken getopt.  It shouldn't be hard to 
modify that test to detect whatever is wrong with the solaris one.

Message-ID: <ECEC410B5420B14A95C50B30FB47BC462200EA2047@PUNITPMBX03.ad.infosys.com>

Hi
I am running version 2.5.03 (scorpio) Build 2382. I am using Windows XP SP2. Pserver. I have created the repository(TEST)and the temporary files directory in NTFS file system(in none system directory).  Created a admin alias of a local user. Made it a administrator by putting the 'admin' in the admin file. AclMode is set to 'Normal'. Imported a module in the repository. Created another user(suppose A). Gave this user all permissions on the module.  The user can checkout the TEST repository, but the problem is whenever I run the command CVS ls -l -R  it says User A cannot read from /TEST/.Same thing happens if I run this command using 'admin' user.  I have given both the users all permissions through the security tab in folder properties dialog. I get the same message when I try to import the repository in eclipse.
Can some help please.

Thanks in advance
Pawan

Hi,


Finally, I have been able to login successfully and checkout the code. I can
also checkin properly. After so many unsuccessful attempts, I yesterday
thought of trying using :ssh: [as Arthur suggested in one of his post :) ]
and it worked. For connecting using :ssh:, I had to create
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/admin file. I added the system user name (present on CVSNT
server) to this file. Without this file, I was not able to checkout &
checkin.

After succeeding using :ssh:, I again thought of giving :pserver: a try.
Today was a great day! I can now checkout using :pserver: also.

For :pserver: --->
Almost everything remained same in the configuration files that I touched
earlier. Only thing that I did today was that I appended the name of the CVS
user (who is the first field in $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/passwd file) in the
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/admin file.

[root at localhost ~]# cat /usr/local/cvsrep/CVSROOT/passwd
cvsuser:MH1PeBf7wNDa.:syscvs

[root at localhost ~]# cat /usr/local/cvsrep/CVSROOT/admin
syscvs
cvsuser

Without adding this CVS user, I was able to login but not able to checkout.

While checking out, it used to give the folowing error:
-------------------------------------------------------------
cvs -z9 -d :pserver:cvsuser at xx.x.xx.xxx:/usr/local/cvsrep checkout --
CVSROOT (in directory C:\Documents and Settings\servista7\Desktop)
cvsnt server: User cvsuser cannot read CVSROOT

***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****
-------------------------------------------------------------

I am happy now but there is one thing that is causing worry. I referred the
CVSNT Official doc. It mentions that 'admin' file is for Repository
administrators. If this is the case, then obviously, I can't write
everyone's name in that file. I also tried using 'writers' file but to no
avail.
Can anyone please provide some guidance on this issue?


Thanks & Regards,
Gaurav

see you then!


i recommend rounding your troops for a similar conversation, and a brainstorm session for how to prepare for what lies ahead. just sayin.


the best part of dinner was the irish soda bread- it was so so good, and it's really easy to make. 


when she does these weekends she fills up really fast so don't wait- if you need color and/or cut and/or face waxing at very reasonable prices email her promptly and she'll get you booked and give you directions. 


i am going to turn on some good music and choose to be happy.


corned beef is cheap meat, a head of cabbage is less than 50 cents, and i bet you have all the ingredients for the bread in your cupboard. you should make this meal tonight!


when you need to be home, may you find your way.


haha, that's my girl. 


cate was so happy she began yelling "let's give a hand to springtime! 


i am blocking my two latest projects today and will show them tomorrow. 


we ate corned beef and cabbage with irish soda bread last night in preparation for the day of the irish. 


but then again, we looove roadtrips.


(i hate in quilting and knitting and sewing when the designs get all fancy just because they can). 


it's definately worth the long drive,


she never looks like a senator from krypton on the red carpet. 


you sit at the counter


1. in the craft room i throw everything on the homework table. that clears up the floor for more mess craft making. 


in a tiny town in idaho


i always enjoy knitting lacy stuff but this pattern was especially fun, super easy, and portable.


i was chuckling while i cooked thinking about how my irish grandparents always had a plaque on their wall with this prayer on it: "may you be in heaven a half hour before the devil knows your dead" ha!

Hi All,


Can anyone please tell me how to access :pserver: without entering the
user's name in 'admin' file? I am not able to access the CVS server
repository without entering the user's name in $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/admin file.
This type of access is obviously not desirable.

Kindly refer my last post in this thread for more details.

Subject: [cvsnt] How to configure cvs and which is the correct
Message-ID: <4c3d74020905190705s54394638s9bd2e92bb8990cec@mail.gmail.com>

for evaluating trail version of cvs I installed CVS nt from CVSNT
2.5.03.2382 Stable SERVER setup file
CVSNT 2.5.03.2382 Stable SERVER setup file .
I have already installed wincvs from
http://www.wincvs.org/download.html#wincvs_recommended

Question 1:

Is  the cvsnt i installed correct

Question 2:

In the installation guide
http://web.telia.com/~u86216177/InstallCVSNT25.html

it  is given set cvsroot=:sserver:<user>@<computername>:/TEST

What is the path from which I should give cvsroot i have installed cvsnt
in c:\program files\cvsnt

and created a repository directory in c:\cvsrepos\cvsstemp.  My doubt is
from which path should I give the cvsroot command above.

Also pls tell me whether  CVSNT 2.5.03.2382 Stable SERVER  is the correct
file for installing cvsnt (some tell it is old)

What i want to do is create user accounts on the cvsnt and create different
access and check in and check out projects.

Please send me any document for doing this if you have any.


Can anyone tell me how can i configure. I need documents related to that.

Urgently required.

Thanks in advance

Hi Friends

I installed CVS nt from CVSNT 2.5.03.2382 Stable SERVER setup file
.

I have already installed wincvs from
http://www.wincvs.org/download.html#wincvs_recommended

When ever i go to the commandline and try to create a user or password like
cvs passwd -a <accountname> where account name is my nt login id

I am getting the message no connection could be made because the target
machine actively refused it.


2) Also when I am checking out using cvs co cvsroot I am getting the same
error. I have set the cvsroot using -d and also in the environment variables


If I try through wincvs admin/login and set the root directory and password
below it is giving normal aborted with code 0. I am unable to create a login

 Please help as this urgently required.


Thanks

I am beginner to this configuring controls.  I have got a important task at
hand.

Question Can this trial version be used for evaluation purposes

I have attached a screen shot containing what I am getting when i start the
cvs suite studio.  Can anybody please tell me why it is taking long to start
or is it hanging up.

And pls guide me how can i configure roles and permissions for my local
folders and use wincvs along with this.

Please tell me whether this cvssuite studio 2.5.04.3236 can be integrated
with visual studio.net 2005/2008.

Remember that if you are setting up your own server you need to download
the server and the client (you've already got the client) and if you are
installing both the server and client on one PC then you need to install
them in the order: 1) client 2) server.

> Also it is taking a a lot of time to start still showing 
> starting ... once i

The screenshot you sent shows that it is waiting for you to click on
'use free' or 'upgrade to suite'.

> And pls guide me how can i configure roles and permissions 

1) install client ( done )
2) install server 
3) create server repository using control panel: CVSNT
4) make no other changes to CVSNT server control panel
5) start CVS Suite Studio
6) on left side 'open' your new server repository (if you can't see it
STOP HERE)
7) drag folders to import from the right to the left and 'drop' on the
new repository
8) right click folders on right to set permissions
9) drag folders to checkout from the left to the right and 'drop' on
some 'new' folder
10) make changes to files on PC
11) right click PC files or folders to 'CVS->Commit'

Hi Tao and others,

I just saw that you have the same problem as I am having which you
have posted on cvsnt forum as well.
http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2009-April/032040.html

I have windows server 2003 sp1 installed and I am trying to do a big
import upto 2 GB using wincvs.
but it fails with the same error

the same import on MS Windows XP professional SP 3 and it did the
import correctly
I have correct and full permissions with domain name on the cvsnt
server and the repository folder and have tried both sspi and pserver
protocols.

On the server enable 'clients are allowed to trace server' and then
trace the import - the server is probably crashing someplace.  Send just
the last few lines of the trace to the mailing list along with the CVSNT
client/server versions and Client/Server OS versions.

Hi,

client version: WinCvs 2.0.2.4 (Build 4)
server version: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.03 (Scorpio)
Build 2382 (client/server)

Client OS version: Windows XP Professional service pack 3
Server OS version: Windows server 2003 sp 1

I have enabled the option you mentioned on the server, but i don't get
any trace in output window of wincvs.
How do i enable that?


Regards,
Raja

This is NOT a client, this is a GUI that then runs the client (CVSNT).

This is quite old - please upgrade to 2.5.04 or the 2.5.05 testing
release.  If any fixes are required to solve your problem they will
always be made to 2.5.05.

I got this error a couple of weeks ago, and in my case it was because of
a faulty certificate configuration on the server side (sserver
protocol). Make sure you generate a proper .pem file and set its path
appropriately in CVSNT's configuration.

Subject: [cvsnt] Problem with rlog choking on filename keyword
Message-ID: <002901c9dd9d$c3c03f50$4b40bdf0$@com>

Some cvsnt files have a filename keyword where the contents are not enclosed
in @ characters, for instance:

 

filename             this-is-a-file-name.doc

 

instead of:

 

filename             @ this-is-a-file-name.doc@

 

These files will make rlog (and consequently cvsweb) break.

 

Is there a way to fix those files and/or has this been fixed in a later
build?

 

I'm using CVSNT 2.5.03 (Scorpio) Build 2382 on a Linux (CentOS) machine.

 

Thank you,

  Fernando Madruga

Yes this is correct.  CVSNT is NoT CVS, it has many additional keywords.
CVSNT includes it's own version of the rcs programs like rlog, or you
cann use 'cvs rlog' instead of 'rlog'.

This is very old - 2.5.04 has been around for a while and 2.5.05 is in
test.

The only rlog I could find was throwing those errors, and I noticed that
adding the @ chars to the string in the filename would make it work.
I'll have to schedule an upgrade test but doing that on a production system
is not easy.

Is rlog from version 2.5.04 "compatible" with a running 2.5.03 system?
That is, suppose that I install 2.5.04 for a single user (haven't checked
if it's possible!); could I then use that rlog?

Alternatively, supposing that somehow whoever installed cvsnt on this system

This is an old system that I inherited, and you know how it goes:
if it ain't broke, don't fix it! :)

In this case, my main concern is with a 3rd party product (webcvs)
which is more of a commodity than a necessity.

Thank you for your answer.

You'll need to know how it was installed - from an RPM or from source.

I'm not certain if the standard RPM includes the CVSNT rlog or if you
have to build from source.

I used to maintain a port of CVSWEB for CVSNT but haven't touched it in
years - you may want to look at viewvc instead (viewcvs), some other
people on this mailing list will probably be able to help with that -
start a new thread with 'viewvc' in the subject line to catch their
attention.  You may want to find Bo's custom version of ViewVC...

Hey,

I've got a similar problem to the one reported on this list a month ago but
I didn't see a solution to it.  I haven't had luck running the process as an
Administrator instead of System like that person did.  Basically every cvs
command has about a 2:15 minute delay before there is a response.  I've got
"Don't resolve client names" checked and there is no anti-virus running.
This is on a brand new virtual server that we just configured.

Here is the output from cvs -ttt rls.  Note that after hitting enter it took
2:15 for the first log message to appear and then again another pause you
see in the log messages.  All other messages finished within 1 second.  Any
ideas what is causing this?  Thanks.

Read this thread all the way through to the end.  It contains
instructions how to diagnose the problem and also the most common reason
for the cause (DNS problems with verifying the signature on the EXE and
DLLs):
http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2008-October/031355.html

The gory technical detail is that the 2.5.04 DLLs are signed and on
startup the signature is verified (with Verisign) - if your DNS is
incorrectly configured thten this delays the loading of each of the the
protocol DLLs by 20-30 seconds.

At least one other person was not able to correctly configure their DNS
to get this to operate and we have committed a fix to 2.5.05 for people
thus affected and will be releasing a new test MSI soon.

Thanks Arthur, that is helpful.  I was looking down the wrong path but I
believe this is the issue.

This server is on a subnet that does not have access to the internet.  Does
it cause any issue if these verifications can not be done?  I can probably
think of a way to have these calls return 'access denied' instead of just
waiting for timeouts.

Not technically, and the patches to 2.5.05 Tony's done should mean that
it doesn't try in future.  We wanted to check that the DLL was validly
signed (ie: the checksums match etc) but we inadvertently were also
checking that the certificate is valid (which requires an internet
connection to check for certificate revokation).

Good idea.  The few people who I've spoken with indicate that quite a
lot of software suddenly starts to speed up when these sorts of problems
are fixed...

Ahoj!

I have this problem of several directories checked out with sticky type
T (branch) and other dirs as type N (regular tag), although I am sure
that the tag I checked-out from was never placed as a branch, but always
as a tag... 

Moreover, I've asked one of my colleagues to check out using the same
command line and types 'T'/'N' appear in different directories than on
my working copy. 

I'm using:
Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.03 (Scorpio) Build 2382
(client/server) from WinCVS 2.1.1.1
Server: CVSNT 2.5.03 (Scorpio) Build 2382

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Can you please do 'cvs status' on the same file in the two sandboxes
that exhibit the problem as described?

Hi All,

I've checked the CVSNT newsgroup and FAQ and the Eclipse FAQ and newsgroup 
for the answer to the following questions with no success. 

Here's my scenario:  Our environment is CVSNT Server (2.5.03.2382) on a RH 
Linux server with WinXP clients.  Most clients connect using TortoiseCVS 
and WinCVS.  I have a number of developers that want to use Eclipse to 
connect to the repository.  After configuring my Eclipse installation and 
CVSNT client, I have tested checking out from CVSNT using Eclipse with a 
modicum of success.  I can check out a module only if I specify the 
module's path relative to the repository location (i.e., mod-dir/module 
relative to /usr/local/cvs/cvs-repo).  When browsing the CVSNT modules 
from Eclipse, I get the following error: 

     Resource CVSROOT/ is not a child of folder

In my /etc/PServer file on the server, Compat0_OldVersion=1 and 
Compat0_OldCheckout=1.  Compat0_HideStatus is commented out.  The way I 
understand this, I need to set Compat0_OldVersion=0, Compat0_OldCheckout=0 
and possibly  Compat0_HideStatus=0 in order to allow fully compatible 
access to my Eclipse users to access the repository. 
What will changing the value of these parameters do to my Tortoise and 
WinCVS users?  What functionality will I lose/gain by changing these 
variables?  Would it be better to set up a separate repository for these 
users instead of integrating their modules into the current repository?

What was the EXACT command you used to add the file?

When I checkout a non-branch tag and try and add a file in an existing
directory I get this error:
cvsnt server: cannot add file on non-branch tag CVSNT_2_5_03_3309

This version is quite old, please upgrade to 2.5.04.

Also based on past newsgroup activity I think AEP have been using CVSNT
for some time - please alert your management to the benefits that using
CVSNT has brought you and advise them to support the project by
purchasing CVS Suite (CVSNT) for $124 per user - annual support and
software maintenance is also available.

> from Eclipse, I get the following error:

In CVSNT only admin users can 'see' CVSROOT, there is no reason for any
non-Administrator to ever use CVSROOT and certainly no need to ever use
Eclipse to access it.

Please read the comments in the PServer.example file carefully,
including:

 # Compatibility levels - currently:
 # 0 = Legacy cvs (cvshome.org cvs, eclipse)
 # 1 = cvsnt (cvsnt client, wincvs, tortoisecvs, etc.)

Based on the provided documentation I think it is clear what effect
compat0 has on wincvs, tortoisecvs.

How can you set the user name for each computer using WinCVS? Right now,
when using the Annotate feature, I only see the correct name for the
workstation with the repository on it. Everyone shows up as 'Guest', which
is not helpful at all.

Usually each person has a username to log into the windows PC and this
username and the windows authentication token is used automatically if
you use the SSPI protocol.

If you are using 'login free' PC's then you'll need to get more advanced
in your setup.  If a 'per pc' login is adequate then you could just
rename your guest account on each PC to a better name.

Please supply more information with your next post (server, client,
cvsnt version on client - not the wincvs version - it's a GUI and uses
cvsnt for the work, cvsnt version on server, CVSROOT connection string,
etc etc):

Each PC has and uses Windows logons for each user. None of them are using

I have CVSNT 2.0.51d running on the computer hosting the repository, name

Should be :sspi:ultraviolet:/myrepo and it should automatially use the
username of the logged on person, if it's not you've got a configuration
error somewhere.

I upgraded to CVSNT 2.5.04 and now I can't checkout anything on any
computers other than Ultraviolet (where the repository is stored). 

 

I keep getting the following error: 

cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if
any)

 

***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****

 

There are no above messages, so I'm somewhat perplexed as to why this is
happening. The only thing that has changed was the upgrade to CVSNT 2.5.04.

Well I don't think I can do anything to fix it.  I used the host file to
redirect all the various domains it tries to contact, like crl.verisign.net,
ocsp.lax2.verisign.com, cds118.iad9.llnw.net, etc... to 0.0.0.0 but it just
keeps retrying to connect.  Every couple seconds it issues a new request.
Any idea how long before the update is released?

Hi!

I cannot recall the exact command, as I've used WinCVS GUI.
I've created a very short example that reproduced my problem (a module
with two subdirs, each with a single text file):
cvs -w -d :sspi:fsrcvs:/CVS/swmaint/team_repos import -I ! -I CVS -m
test -n -- sticky_tag_example 
cvs -w -d :sspi:fsrcvs:/CVS/swmaint/team_repos checkout -P --
sticky_tag_example 
cvs -w tag -- bld_1
cvs -w update -P -d -r bld_1

Looking into Tag files from each CVS/ directory in my sandbox, I can see
that both subdirs have the 'N' type, but the root directory has the 'T'
type.
If I try to add a file in a subdir (cvs -w add -- foo.c) I get 'cvs
server: cannot add file on non-branch tag bld_1'
But if I add a file in the root folder of the module (same cvs -w add --
foo.c) it says:

What was the EXACT command you used to add the file?

When I checkout a non-branch tag and try and add a file in an existing
directory I get this error:
cvsnt server: cannot add file on non-branch tag CVSNT_2_5_03_3309

Please reply to the group not me personally.

Just an update for future record.  We setup a proxy for this and it appears
to work now.  I'm still planning on updating when the patch is available so
I don't have to do this.

Relating back to the other thread from last month where running the process
as an Admin fixed the response time,  if they are also using a proxy, the
settings are on a per user basis.  So the proxy may not have been configured
for the Local System user but was configured for the Admin account.  I just
configured the proxy on a cvsadmin account and ran the service under this
user.

Ahh - good explanation, makes sense to me.

I assume you mean you set 'cvsadmin' as 'run as user' in the CVSNT
control panel (not the services control panel)?

You should never ever run CVSNT as the user 'cvsadmin', this group name
is reserved on CVSNT (unix/linux) for administrators - running CVSNT as
cvsadmin will in effect mean that all users become administrators.  One
windows servers it *should* have no effect (because we use the
Administrators group there) but it's still best avoided:
http://www.cvsnt.org/manual/html/admin.html
And
http://www.cvsnt.org/manual/html/Administrators.html

For CVSNT users and groups are always interchangable (so a user named
cvsadmin is the same as a group named cvsadmin).

Arthur Barrett

Something was seriously  wrong with your server BEFORE you upgraded,
hopefully this new problem helps narrow the reason down.

Did you upgrade the client and the server or only the server?  If at all
possible the versions should match (and both TortoiseCVS and WinCVS work
OK with 2.5.04).

When you test on the server are you using SSPI?  If this works then the
services are running OK.

On the client try this on the command line:

  cvs -d :sspi:ultraviolet:/myrepo logout
  cvs -d :sspi:ultraviolet:/myrepo rls

If that fails then on the server start the CVSNT server control panel
and on the advanced tab enable 'clients are allowed to tracce server',
then on the client do this:

  cvs -d :sspi:ultraviolet:/myrepo logout
  cvs -ttt -d :sspi:ultraviolet:/myrepo rls

Look at the trace for any reason why the server is failing - don't post
the whole trace to the newsgroup because posts over 8K are rejected
automatically - but you can post excerpts.

I'm pretty sure that should be:
 cvs -w update -A -P -d -r bld_1

But I tested your combination on my mac (10.5) and it seems OK:


cvs -w -d :pserver:localhost:/myrepo import -I ! -I CVS -m test -n -- sticky_tag_example
cd ..
cvs -w -d :pserver:localhost:/myrepo checkout -P -- sticky_tag_example

If you can reproduce it on 2.5.04 or 2.5.05 then I'll look at it again, but for now it looks like either anti-virus messing up the update to the CVS/Tag file or a very very old bug that's been fixed for years.

Subject: [cvsnt] Database audit doesn't work with MS SQL Server
Message-ID: <1tu06l4h50ys9$.dlg@connectionbrazil.com>

Hello,

I'm trying to enable the audit database on a Microsoft SQL Server. The 
problem seems to be that the SessionId field in the CommitLog and 
HistoryLog tables is always inserted as '0'. (Using this value then 
probably makes the final update of the EndTime field also fail.) See the 
log below.

This seems to be a supported database server. (Version is SQL Server 
9.0.1399 - that's SQL Server 2005.) I created the tables from the CVSNT 
control panel and enabled auditing -- all pretty much plain and simple: 
select "mssql", set up connection, select logging of Sessions, Commits, 
Tags and History, click "Test Connection", click "Create Tables", click 
"OK".

Is there something specific that needs to be done when connecting to 
this server? Or is it not supported?

Thanks,
Gerhard

Hello,

I have a question about usage of the (r)log command.

Basically, I want a list of all revisions on a branch, but only the ones 
that do have actual commits on a branch. A variation is a list of all 
revisions on a branch after a given tag that was used on that branch. 

I can't figure out how to use the log command to get this list of files. 
Any help appreciated.

I installed CVS Suite v2.5.04.3236 this morning, and when trying to run any
command line options I get the following error:

>cvs version
cvs [version aborted]: c:\Program Files\CVS Suite\CVSNT Tools/CVSROOT: No

I'm running this on Windows Vista.

It looks like something in CVS is trying to append the "/CVSROOT" to the end
of the CVSROOT path, but can't figure out where or why it is trying to do
this.

Thank you for any light you can shed on this issue.

Mark

Hi Mark,

It appears as though you have downloaded and installed CVSNT with CVS
Suite Studio - "CVS Suite" is a different product and contains VS.NET
integration, comprehensive documentation and versions of CVSNT that have
been specifically tested and developed for commercial software
development etc.  

It's a little confusing - basically what you get for 'free' is
'community content', if you need the documentation, support and full set
of tools and QA tested product then you need to purchase it from the web
site.

> CVSROOT=c:\Program Files\CVS Suite\CVSNT Tools

That's not really a valid CVSROOT - I've never seen anyone even try that
before - I suppose it's an easy enough mistake to make, and the error
message doesn't particularly help.  CVSROOT is a 'connection string'
that tells the client how to connect to the server, eg:
 
  :sspi:server.mydomain.net:/myrepository

That is the old 'local' protocol which I've been threatening to disable
for some time now.  If I do move this further I'll probably start with
removing all references to it from the documentation.

What I really should have written to Mark is the same thing I wrote to
Bharath recently:

1) install client from here (includes graphical and command line
clients):
http://march-hare.com/cvspro/#downcvsnt
2) install server from here:
http://march-hare.com/cvspro/#downcvsnt
3) create server repository using control panel: CVSNT
4) make no other changes to CVSNT server control panel
5) start CVS Suite Studio
6) on left side 'open' your new server repository (if you can't see it
STOP HERE)
7) drag folders to import from the right to the left and 'drop' on the
new repository
8) right click folders on right to set permissions
9) drag folders to checkout from the left to the right and 'drop' on
some 'new' folder
10) make changes to files on PC
11) right click PC files or folders to 'CVS->Commit'


I think this is going to have to end up on the web site somewhere as a
'quick start' guide to 2.5.04...

Arthur Barrett

All users who are a member of the internal group should have full access
on HEAD and a "guest" user (who is listed in the readers file, but is
NOT a member of the internal group) should be able to checkout code from
the TEST_BRANCH, but not from HEAD.

The problem is that the "guest" user is still unable to checkout code
from the TEST_BRANCH due to the following error:

cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or
directory

Again, I apologize for my confusion Arthur, but what seems to be such a
simple configuration is kicking my butt and it's very frustrating.

Thanks again for your patience and support,

Terry
