pserver passwd
Authored by: PeterNSteinmetz on Sep 09, '02 10:51:41AM

Following up on Bill Rising's comment about the need to also add /services/cvspserver to the NetInfo database

After the above is performed, under 10.1.5, it consistently complains that there is an authentication failure after the connection is made to 2401.

This occurs whether one is using a user name in CVSROOT/passwd or another valid username in the NetInfo database or a valid username in /etc/passwd. It also occurs when all of the above are true for the same username and the CVSROOT/passwd system users name is the same.

Under Server 10.1.4, the pserver will work with users in the NetInfo database and with entries in the CVSROOT/passwd file.

cvs --version under both OS X versions is the same, namely 1.10.

It appears that some change to the authentication system between 10.1.4 and 10.1.5 must have broken the pserver in cvs.

Any one else with suggestions on fixing?

cheers,
Peter
