I tried using :sspi:. 1 I duplicated the user account from the client PC to the server PC. The account has no password. 2 CVSROOT client - :sspi:Owner at Lab39:C:\CVSNT\repo server - C:\CVSNT\repo 3 On the client, I tried cvs co CVSROOT 4 I got this response: connect to Lab39:2401 failed: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. cvd [checkout aborted]: Connection to server failed What am I doing wrong? Bill -----Original Message----- If you duplicate the user accounts on your workstation PC:s to the server PC (create accounts with the same username and password) then you can use :sspi:, which is most transparent and easy to use. If this is not possible then the next thing to do (in a closed environ- ment like a company LAN) is to create one or two user accounts on the server for CVS access. THen use the :pserver: protocol. In this case you will have to add the allowed users for pserver by executing the cvs passwd command and add the CVS users with their CVS passwords while aliasing each of them to the created user account on the server. This will make CVS operate with the permissions of that server account but store the :pserver: usernames into the CVS logs so that you still will get to know who did what. /Bo -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org]On Behalf Of Bill Swartz Sent: den 28 april 2005 01:37 To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: [cvsnt] cvsnt on windows workgroup Hello, We have several WINXP machines. I have cvsnt server on one and cvsnt client on another. What combination of protocol and accounts will allow me to access the server from the client?
