[cvsnt] OT IIS (was CVSNT + Web Application Implementation)

[Bo Berglund]

There is no special handling for localhost or 127.0.0.1 in CVSNT
Here is a simple test that shows this:

C:\temp\CVSTest>set CVSROOT=:sspi:localhost:/TEST
C:\temp\CVSTest>cvs ls
Listing modules on server
CVSROOT

C:\temp\CVSTest>set CVSROOT=:sspi:127.0.0.1:/TEST
C:\temp\CVSTest>cvs ls
Listing modules on server
CVSROOT


Notice that both using localhost and 127.0.0.1 works just fine. 


What GUI are you referring to???


Best regards,

Bo Berglund

Annoyingly, it can't (to my knowledge) - not one of the options in the
GUI.  Hence the rather grotty workaround to what should have been a
perfectly simple problem!

Indeed.  This presupposes an OS with Windows Firewall (or RRAS), but
it's an appropriate solution if you've already got the firewall turned
on or are willing to risk some network instability while you turn it on
and tune the configuration.

None of which helps the OP, but hey :-).
