RE: [cvsgui] 'inetd.conf' File not Found after installing CVS |

Hi!
I had mentioned in my earlier letter that I was unable to connect to the
CVS Server, as I could not find the 'inetd.conf' file. Thanx for the help on
that, but I shall have to trouble you again in the following form. What can
be the trouble?
Python 2.2.1 (#34, Apr 9 2002, 19:34:33) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
CVSROOT: address@hidden:/src/master/cvstest (password authentication)
cvs login
Logging in to :pserver:address@hidden:2401/src/master/cvstest
cvs [login aborted]: connect to LinuxServer(LinuxServer):2401 failed: No
connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
*****CVS exited normally with code 1*****
Could it be as I have as yet not made the 'passwd' file in
/src/master/cvstest/CVSROOT? If so, could you please guide me as to how to
do this and specially about how to put in the encrypted passwords. Also I
read mentioned someplace that the users for CVS cannot be the same as those
of the users on the *nix CVS Server machine. Is this true? If so what is the
solution for this?
Thanx
Gagneet

xinetd is what RH 7.2 uses instead of inetd.
Here's what I had to do:
First, you need to check that port 2401 is active for "cvspserver". Go
to /etc/services to check. In my file, I had listed
cvspserver 2401/tcp # CVS client/server
operations
cvspserver 2401/udp # CVS client/server
operations
If this isn't there, I believe you can edit the file to include it (but
I didn't have to do this).
Then, you need to tell xinetd to use cvspserver. Go to /etc/xintd.d and
copy one of the existing files to "cvspserver" in the same directory.
Edit it to read something like this (server reflects where cvs is
installed, and server_args is where your CVSROOT is):
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
passenv = PATH
server = /usr/bin/cvs
server_args = -f --allow-root=/var/cvswell pserver
}
Once you've saved that file, then type the following at the prompt:
chkconfig cvspserver on
You can check that it is working by typing:
chkconfig --list |grep pserver
And it should list that cvspserver is on.
After I did all this, WinCVS connected just fine.
