thank you for the input. I still see nothing pointing to the other id. our
CVSROOT on the server where the sandbox is is using
pserver:address@hidden:/repo..... I am logged in as "build". on server where
cvs is hosted, the pserver is set up with xinted.d as follows:
service cvspserver
{
disable = no
port = 2401
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
group = cvs
log_type = FILE /var/log/cvspserver
passenv = PATH
server = /usr/bin/cvs
env = '$HOME=/repos/cvsroot'
log_on_failure += USERID
server_args = -f --allow-root=/repos/cvsroot pserver
}
So I am not really sure what was done in the past to this working directory.
Funny thing is some of my commits are showing "build" as the user. It's not
that important, but I'd just prefer that the old id didn't show up. At least
if it was my id or the build id it would be better.
thank you
KM

KM,
And it caries again depending on the client software. Eg: if you are using
WinCVS, TortoiseCVS or anything else that uses the CVSNT client then it will
depend on the CVSROOT which you used to create the sandbox.
Eg:
- named user: :pserver:address@hidden:/myrepo
- current user: :pserver:myhost:/myrepo
We always recommend you create the sandboxes using the 'current user' method -
then many people can 'share' a sandbox and when each 'commits' it's their
'logged in name' that gets used no the name of the person who created the
sandbox.
