Hi, please do not reply in private, use the mail list or CVSNT news server instead. Regarding CVS (or rather CVSNT) you should realize that this is a tool that is primarily designed for version control of software source files and that it has since a long time a well-defined TCP interface of its own (port 2401). So any CVS client is communicating with the server using this port and the CVS special protocol. It is *not* designed to be used over a webserver or via a web browser. ViewCvs is a tool that enables *viewing* (hence the name) of a CVS repository in a convenient format, but no normal commands are possible via this interface. It is simply not meant for that. It is just a convenient way to look at a repository and browse for modules and files within. The same goes for CVSWeb, but that is rather stale nowadays when the main development is on the ViewCvs project. So what you should do for your team is: 1) Read the books available for CVS, there are on-line sources like Karl Fogel's book: http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/cvsbook.html The CVSNT E-book: http://www.march-hare.com/cvsnt/features/book/ 2) Install a CVSNT server on your central server PC. Advice here: http://web.telia.com/~u86216177/InstallCVSNT25.html 3) Install the CVSNT client on the developer workstations. You can get a client-only CVSNT installer here: http://web.telia.com/~u86216177/cvsntinstaller.html 4) Install the WinCvs client front-end. This is a GUI front for the command line CVSNT client. Download here, WinCvs is at the bottom of the page, use the "bare" installer: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10072&release_id=83299 5) Study the WinCvs documentation (fragmented...): WinCvs new FAQ: http://www.wincvs.org/newfaq.htm#startlinks A flash tour tutorial: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10072&package_id=1457 1&release_id=302146 Then go from there.

Cool! :) I'm inexperienced in CVS, and have the responsibility to place it in functioning in my team of development. I'm with some doubts on as to control the access it saw web. I obtained to make with that the users have access using SSPI for the JDeveloper, but I would like to disponibilizar the interface web. You can help me? This is my yahoo to messenger: lusilva1982. Thank you...

The configuration is automatic. But ViewCvs as well as CvsWeb bypass the CVS server and reads the RCS files in the repository directly. This means that the system is protocol-less, in fact the server is not used at all (except for the fact that CVSNT has some RCS utilities specially done for ViewCvs so that it can parse the CVSNT RCS file format). Note that the acls used by CVSNT in server mode also do not apply here. So your question about SSPI does not apply to any web browser interface to CVS. /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden) _______________________________________________ cvsnt mailing list cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs <http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs>
