Oliver, I have been meaning for some time to submit a bug report regarding a related problem but haven't gotten around to doing it. I had a very similar error when I upgraded from 2.0.34 to 2.0.51a. I sent several messages to the bulletin board regarding this on 8/10/04 and 8/11/04. (Here is the first http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2004-August/014313.html ) Tony replied that he suspected a problem with my tcp/ip communication.( http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2004-August/014315.html ) I went back to 2.0.34 because I wanted to use rtag and no one else seemed interested in the problem. Since then Dan Castenholz has also posted to the list the same error which I got. You can find a post from him regarding this at http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2004-October/015193.html You can see from Dan's post that this problem was present in 2.0.41 and AFAIK it has been propagated to all subsequent versions. HTH, I would love to see this issue addressed.

I recently upgraded our CVSNT server from 2.0.7 to 2.0.51d and now I've stumbled over something odd. Whenever I try to use rtag from a client machine I get: cvs [rtag aborted]: Error communicating with lock server (send) What's this? I thought only the server itself would try to contact the lockserver (and if it was the server that emitted this message it would have said "cvs server" at the beginning, wouldn't it?). On the server the configuration is set to only listen locally and the binding is consequently for localhost:2402 (i.e. the installation defaults). CVSROOT/config contains "LockServer=localhost:2402". AFAICT all other commands work just fine. It's only rtag that spits out this error... Unfortunately I do not have direct access to the server machine so if necessary I would first have to ask our admin to make any changes and he's rather stressed already today. Thus I'd like to understand as much as possible about this issue beforehands. Does the client end of rtag really try to talk to the lockserver directly? Would I have to uncheck the "listen locally" option or somehow edit CVSROOT/config to make it work again? What would be possible implications? Oh yes, connection is via :sspi: in a closed LAN environment. CVSNT is running on the domain/AD server, which is a W2K Server (don't know about SP, but IIRC it's not SP4 yet). Client machines are W2K Pro SP4 running CVSNT 2.0.51d.
