[cvsnt] CVSNT login issues

Tue Jan 11 09:42:17 GMT 2005

Thanks Bo,Ade and Ankush for your responses.

Ankush - I can not use WinCVS. I am developing a custom application
on top of CVS for a specific requirement.

Ade - I could'nt find .cvspass file. Can you let me know where
      this file would be created? Please note that I would be using domain authentication.

Bo  - I agree with you that If I change the folder location and
login, it works!. But my requirement is something different. Would
be performing this operations on a server where multiple users
would be making changes to the same module.

For example user1 will login and do some changes to a module and  check in the changes.
User2 logs in the same machine and does some changes and has to check in the changes.

Is there any way of telling cvs to use environment variable (CVSROOT) rather than 
retrieving from cache?

Thank you,
Vignesh

THis happens because you are running the cvs login command from within the
checked out module folder.
When you do this the environment variable will not be used, instead cvs uses
the cached information in the CVS subfolders of the checked out module.

Go to a different location like c:\temp\test and repeat your commands and now
you will be accepted as user2.

Hello CVSNT Experts,

       I have an issue working with CVSNT. Can you please help me to resolve it?

Created a repository named "CmsRepository".
Added the following modules to CmsRepository:
      1. Module1
      2. Module2

Steps to reproduce the issue:

Step1:
>From the command prompt, go to a folder. Let us say"D:\testCVSNT" and execute the following commands:
  set cvsroot=:pserver:user1:pass at machine:/CvsRepository
  cvs login

Step2:
 cvs checkout Module1  (Assuming Module1 exist in CvsRepository)

Step3:
  cvs logout

Step4:
   Login with a different user name
   set cvsroot=:pserver:user2:pass2 at machine:/CvsRepository
   cvs login

I get  a output from CVSNT as 

Logging in to :pserver:user1 at machine:2401:/CvsRepository

Please note that, though I have changed the user from user1 to user2, it is still logging in as user1.
Can any body explain this behaviou? I am I doing something wrong over here? Please throw some light on this.

Thanks,
Vignesh
