[Uwadi Eleweke]

Hi,

A million thanks for your quick and useful help.  The first three error
messages have been resolved using your suggestion but you did not say
anything about the fourth (and last) error message below...

Module list not available for server tor-db02.  Ask your administrator to
either install a web browser interface on the server (CVSweb or ViewCVS) or
add the modules to the CVSROOT/modules file.  Meanwhile, you'll have to find
the module name elsewhere."

Please, help.

Kind regards.

Uiweke.

Uiweke,

This is not a valid name of a repository:
> CVSROOT=:sspi:administrator at tor-db02:2401:d:/cvsrepos/xdevelopment
> 

Also you should NOT specify a username (or password) with SSPI, ie:
Bad:
CVSROOT=:sspi:administrator at tor-db02:/devrepo

Good:
CVSROOT=:sspi:tor-db02:/devrepo


You are attempting to refer to the physical location of the repository
on the server, when  you should be using the name of the repository
instead.

Use this command to find the name:

  cvs info -r tor-db02

  Server: tor-db02
  Version: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.05 

  Protocols:
    pserver
    sspi

  Repositories:
    /devrepo                      my dev repo

  Default repository: /devrepo

  Default login: :sspi:tor-db02:/devrepo


Regards,


Arthur
