Hi there, We're investigating cvsnt after being told to shift away from a Solaris box cvs setup. The intended connection protocols are pserver because my cvs front end (jCVS) doesn't support sspi, but also because we'll have Linux boxes accessing the repository. Setup is cvsnt 2.0.8 on WinXP Pro. All installation is done under a domain login with full administrator rights. The install goes fine, but I'm having problems adding users. I can set cvsroot with: set CVSROOT=:sspi:rictor:/TEST and subsequently login successfully, which yield my system user name: H:\>cvs login Logging in to :sspi:RLovell at rictor:2401:/TEST CVS password: ******** but whenever I try to add a user, add a domain user or alias a user I get problems: H:\>cvs passwd -a -r RLovell rlovell Adding user rlovell at rictor New password: **** Verify password: **** cvs [server aborted]: User 'RLovell' is not a real user on the system. so I try adding my domain login as a cvs user: H:\>cvs passwd -a -D domain_name\RLovell RLovell Adding user RLovell at rictor cvs server: *WARNING* CVS user 'RLovell' will not be able to log in until they a re aliased to a valid system user. then I try setting the alias: H:\>cvs passwd -a -r RLovell rlovell Adding user rlovell at rictor New password: **** Verify password: **** cvs [server aborted]: User 'RLovell' is not a real user on the system. so I try aliasing the domain user: H:\>cvs passwd -a -r domain_name\RLovell rlovell Adding user rlovell at rictor New password: **** Verify password: **** error 0 Invalid username - cannot specify domain as server is not acting as a do main member cvs [server aborted]: User 'domain_name\RLovell' is not a real user on the system. I really would like to get this set up for the team but seem to be making a few dumbarse mistakes. Can anybody point them out? regards Richard Lovell
