login problem in unix

[Bhavaniprasad Polimetla]

Dear Sir,

I am using Sun machine  SunOS 5.8.

1. I provided the rwx access to /root/.cvsignore

2. added the following two lines to services
cvspserver      2401/tcp                        # cvs client/server
operations
cvspserver      2401/udp                        # cvs client/server
operations


3. In inetd.conf, tried the following two options.

#cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/cvs cvs -f
--allow-root=/data2/cvsroot pserver
cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/cvs cvs -b /usr/local/bin
pserver

4. restarted the services.
#/etc/init.d/inetinit stop
#/etc/init.d/inetinit start

$cvs -d :pserver:address@hidden:/data2/cvsroot login
Logging in to :pserver:address@hidden:2401/data2/cvsroot
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: connect to 182.20.110.19(172.20.10.19):2401 failed:
Connection refused
