Hi, I am developping a java application which performs a checkout on a cvs repository which is secured with SSH. This application must use 100% java libraries. I use these libraries: - cvs client imp
Guillaume, Noone on the CVS or CVSNT teams is a Java programmer (to my best knowledge anyway), and it is a frequent frustration (for at least some of us) that Java programmers don't simply shell out
Unfortunately, the second method is currently the only available method. You could write your own server program that does exactly that, of course. It shouldn't be too difficult. -- Jim Hyslop Senior
George, I restrict people from being able to commit to CVSROOT by using commitinfo. I added the following line to commitinfo: CVSROOT $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/commitinfo_ckuser -user=$USER I added commitinfo
I have a cgi script which does an anonymous pserver checkout from sourceforge. I'm a bit surprised that cvs looks in root's home directory for .cvspass. I'm currently working around this by chmod 711
What, distance causes mistrust? ;) How exactly does trust vary with distance? Inverse square? Or something more exotic like inverse cube? ;) But then some of the nastiest things that people do to eac
Hi Greg, It doesn't use SSH at all. It uses SSL. :) There are several reasons this is more convenient than SSH: 1. Many users have a hard time setting up a SSH tunnel, whereas CVS_RSH=cvssh seems to

The only feasible way to do this is to provide a program or such that will be able to do the change on the machine. CVS pserver protocol does not allow for password change. Maybe Mark wants to add i
Make sure that the readers file has permissions set to 640. The system account that the CVS user is asigned to needs to have group access to this file. I can't think of anything else that might be ca
I've now changed my environment as a test to see if there is something going wrong. I have downloaded the CVS 1.11 Solaris client/server version from the CVS Home web site, as well as WinCVS 1.10, us

Yes, I used the latest version from 3/9/01 - 2.0.5 and installed it, and am getting the encrypted keys in the passwd file, that's why I was wondering if there was something else on the CVS server th
Are the passwords encrypted or plaintext? They have to be encrypted to work. If you want you can grab a copy of the new CVSPWD program which will manage the password and readers files for you. You ca
That's fine if you want to give all your CVS users write access to the password file... -- With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. - RFC 1925 (quotin
Because some reasons, I use window with domain user:chaozh. I configured cvs with xinetd in cygwin and cvs started successfully, because I can find the cvspserver port is listening through 'netstat -
