Arthur, Gaurav, I have the CVSNT installation now running on my Solaris 10 machine but I run into exactly the same error. - If I login with the CVS user "cvs" it works, I can check out modules. - I can create a new user "test" with password "test" without a problem, even from my Windows laptop. The user is aliased to system user "cvs". I checked the passwd file and indeed this passwd file is created and user test is there. - If I try to login with user "test" and I get the error. C:\temp>cvs -d :pserver:test at nl02:/CVS login Logging in to :pserver:test at nl02:2401:/CVS CVS password: **** cvs [login aborted]: Error reading from server nl02: 0: No such file or directory Unfortunately we can't use SSH because none of the users have actual system accounts on this server. If I try to log in with a random other user I do get a different error message: C:\temp>cvs -d :pserver:testing at nl02:/CVS login Logging in to :pserver:testing at nl02:2401:/CVS CVS password: **** cvs [login aborted]: authorization failed: server nl02 rejected access to /CVS for user testing Is there a problem with the cvs alias that is not documented, or am I missing some configuration item somewhere?

My current setting for file /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver are: --------------------------------- service cvspserver { socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = cvs passenv = PATH server = /usr/local/bin/cvsnt server_args = authserver disable = no } --------------------------------- > cvs [login aborted]: authorization failed: server 10.5.68.161 rejected access to /usr/local/cvsrep/ for user cvs >>>That is a different error to the subject of this thread. >>> The error "authorization failed" usually means that you are not authorized, common causes are: * wrong password ---> Checked my password; it's correct. * incorrect SystemAuth setting in /usr/local/cvsrep/CVSROOT/config ---> 'SystemAuth=yes' in config file. * problem with /usr/local/cvsrep/CVSROOT/passwd ---> Contents of CVSROOT/passwd file are: cvs:XdmuQ8SRTP8U2 While connecting to the server using WinCVS, I was earlier passing the following, which was wrong as pointed by J.R. Heisey in ' http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/cvsgui/message/18939': cvs -z9 -d :pserver:cvs at 10.5.68.161:/usr/local/cvsrep login So, I changed it to the following but to no avail. Only difference now is the error message: cvs -z9 -d :pserver:cvs at 10.5.68.161:/CVSROOT login Logging in to :pserver:cvs at 10.5.68.161:2401:/CVSROOT cvs [login aborted]: /CVSROOT: no such repository ***** CVS exited normally with code 1 ***** Also, is the port 2401 allocated properly below? [root at localhost CVSROOT]# netstat -nap | grep 2401 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:2401 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4074/xinetd Arthur, I want to solve this 'pserver' access issue and then want to go for others. I think, I am just missing some small point in this connection problem.
