[cvsnt] Error setting users in CVS server

[Bo Berglund]

wrong commands. Use:
set CVSROOT=:sspi:<machinename>:/test 
or
set CVSROOT=:pserver:<username>@>machinename>:/test
(depends on which protocol you use for your own connection when preparing the pserver users)

Then the next command is also wrong! Use:

cvs passwd -r cvsuser -a testuser

The switches -a and -r must each be followed by the parameter (username)

To test connectivity have you checked:
cvs ls

This should give you a list of the repository modules, at least CVSROOT shall be shown.
If this does not succeeed then you must fix your connection before you continue with the passwd stuff.

Subject: [cvsnt] Error setting users in CVS server


Hi,

        I have 2 Windows XP professional machines in a workgroup and I'm installing CVS Server on  one box. After installing the CVS Server I'm trying to set up users on teh server and I'm
        having problems in doing so.
        Firstly I opeende the command prompt and set the cvsroot
            set cvsroot=:pserver:<machine name>:/test
        Secondly, I'm trying to set user like this
            cvs passwd -a -r cvsuser testuser      (where cvs user is the user on the local account.)
         Doing the above thing I get the following error
            cvs [server aborted]: can't create temporary directory C:\cvstemp/cvs-serv3160: Permisssion Denied.
        

    Your help here is really appreciated

Thanks  A Lot
Rajeev
