I have my cvs server running on a linux box and am using pserver mode to
connect.
When I have the CVSROOT/config file set SystemAuth=yes then cvs -d
:pserver:address@hidden:/myrepos login works and I can log in using
username and the system password for username.
I then used passwd command to change the password to something else and
cut and paste the new password field into the CVSROOT/config file
e.g.
username:sB3A79YDX5l4s
I also set SystemAuth=no
And then did a commit on both config and passwd (after adding passwd).
When trying to log on I now get:
"no such user username in CVSROOT/passwd
cvs login: authorization failed: server homenet.net rejected access to
/myrepos for user username"
If I view the passwd file directly under the CVSROOT directory then I
can see username.
I have also tried setting passwd file as:
username:
as one would do for anonymous users, but same result.
At all times I used edit and commit to make changes to file.
Any suggestions
