Suddenly telnet has started working, it gives me the usual bad auth
protocol..I'm sure I dint change anything.
However, im still getting the same output on both the local and reomte
connections.
am i doing something wrong?
in the cvsnt applet, repositories tab, i have two entries:
name                                          root
/cvs/cvsrepo                              g:/cvs/cvsrepo
/cvs/cvsrepo/test                        g:/cvs/cvsrepo/test

and then I do
>set cvsroot=:sspi:cygnus:/test
>cvs ls
and get
cvs [ls aborted]: /test: no such repository 

???
