Dear fellows, I'd like to establish a repository on a local network drive [for system description see footnote]. In my first try importing modules to the net drive I used the CVSROOT :local:G:\CVS. Then the error message cvs [log aborted]: Local access to network share not supported (Use -N to override this error). came up. Neither the options nor in the online manual of the WinCVS-Client I found anything about activating this -N option by default via the GUI. So I decided to use the :fork:-protocol. I was able to import my modules error free into the repository placed on the net drive G:\. Unfortunately, when checking out, updating or committing I get the following error statements (examples): a) with fork-protocol: >cvs -w -d :fork:G:\CVS checkout -P -- TTPowerPlant cvs server: connect to 127.0.0.1(127.0.0.1):2402 failed: Es konnte keine Verbindung hergestellt werden, da der Zielcomputer die Verbindung verweigerte. (translated: unable to establish connection, target computer denies the connection) b) with local-protocol: I get the 1st above mentioned error message, that I should use -N command-option. The error advice to use the -N command-option helps to solve the problem, that's good. But the bad thing is that I can only achieve it using the command line. I'd like (and all the others developers here in the LAN) like to use the WinCVS-client. So my question is: How can do all the accessing command on the repository on the local network drive using the WinCVS-client, without having this mentioned problems? or better: How to setup a running CVS on the LAN? Thanks for your help Michael System description: ----------------------------------------- WinCVS Version 2.0.2.4 (Build 4) CVSNT Version (Aug 19 2004) Repository established on LAN drive OS: WinXP Prof. Python 2.4.3 (#69, Apr 11 2006, 15:32:42) ______________________________________________________________________ XXL-Speicher, PC-Virenschutz, Spartarife & mehr: Nur im WEB.DE Club!
