I am trying to setup the cvsnt server on a Linux box running RedHat 9.0 I downloaded the .rpm and installed it. I then tried to follow the linux directions but I must be missing something because when I try and connect with SmartCVS from a Windows XP box I get a "You could not get authenticated by the CVS server" error. I went through the installation guide as follows: CVS Server Configuration - I uncommented the repository lines: Repository0=/usr/local/cvs Repository0Name=/cvs Repository0Description=ETS Repository Under the CVS run with xinetd section I modifed the cvs as follows: service cvspserver { disable = no socket_type = stream wait = no user = root group = root log_type = FILE /var/log/cvspserver env = 'HOME=/home/cvsroot' server = /usr/bin/cvsnt server_args = authserver groups = yes log_on_failure += USERID flags = REUSE IPv6 mdns = no # Lockserver handles mdns broadcast } for the Lockserver, the cvslockd file was already loaded in the /etc/init.d directory for I just ran: chkconfig --list | grep cvslockd with the following results: cvslockd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off I then ran the cvs -d :local:/usr/local/cvs init I then set up the PAM stuff per the directions. I tested the cvs -version and the telnet localhost 2402 and both seem to be working. In the SmartCVS I use: User root Server address 172.16.100.103 Path to repository /usr/local/cvs and the password. After that point I am lost. I am not sure what else I need to do or change or point to another location to make it work. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Calvin
