[cvsnt] New to cvsnt - Having issues

[Bo Berglund]

You cannot initialize a new repository remotely!
This is a procedure that must be done on the CVSNT server itself.
So you must log on to the CVSNT server (as administrator) and then use the
CVSNT control panel applet (that is the easiest way) and specify a new repository
root. CVSNT will then initialize it and add it to the list of handled repositores.

Subject: [cvsnt] New to cvsnt - Having issues


I have just installed successfully cvsnt 2.0.43 on a win 2003 server. I ahve
also installed the client on redhat 9 workstation. I am able to check in and
check out with out any problems, what I am after is the ability for people
to create their ow repositories but with security that other people cant
check them out, I have made a repository according to the instructions and
this is fine if we need to share but we dont want to yet.... also the cvs
init command seems to have issues... like
cvs [server aborted]: Protocol error: Root request missing...

I am using the pserver option.....

cvs -d :pserver:username:password at server:/dir init


am I doing something wrong?


thanks in advance
