Community technical support mailing list was retired 2010 and replaced with a professional technical support team. For assistance please contact: Pre-sales Technical support via email to sales@march-hare.com.


Setup:
Win2000 client connecting to Win2000 server via VPN
Both using build 51 (8a) (even though dialogs still say build 50...?)
Trying to use ntserver protocol
Read readme and devguy notes

config says SystemAuth=yes
still have passwd file listing all users and domains anyway
Local access of repository works fine.

All checkboxes ticked in config tool except "use local accounts..."
------------------
Assuming server is "foo", and f:/cvs is the respository (f: is a local drive
partition) when I trying something like:-

cvs -d :ntserver:foo:f:/cvs ls CVSROOT

I get :
"cvs [ls aborted]: authorization failed: server alpha rejected access to
f:/cvs"

All commands do the same thing. I've even given everyone full access to the
repository to ensure they have full rights.
If I try running the cvsserver in test mode, it logs the start and end of
the ntserver process but no other trace messages.

I've also tried sspi, which just says the request was rejected but the
remote machine
I also tried using pserver which just causes CVS.EXE to crash on the server!

I've spent 16 hours on this today so I would really appreciate some ideas on
this - thanks.

Russ
